Coconut Cream Bars

COCONUT CREAM BARS

These bars are a delicious way to modify your Coconut Cream Keto Bricks to provide another unique flavor and texture!

What you’ll need:

½ coconut cream brick

1c unsweetened coconut flakes

1 can unsweetened coconut cream, water removed (chill one can of coconut milk overnight to let the cream and water separate; Thai Kitchen brand works best due to high-fat content)

1T monk fruit sweetener

1/2T vanilla extract

1T coconut oil, melted

 

DIRECTIONS:

Preheat oven to 350°

Line a cookie sheet with parchment paper and evenly spread coconut flakes. 

Bake for 6-8 minutes or until it turns golden brown. Set aside to cool.

In a medium bowl, mix cooled coconut flakes, cream, oil, sweetener, and vanilla until a dough forms.

Once formed, make five logs by hand and place onto a sheet of parchment paper (or other non-stick material). Freeze until firm, about 10-15 minutes.

While those firm up, melt half a brick in a measuring cup (you’ll need enough room to dip the coconut logs). Once the brick has been melted, use either a long toothpick or fork to dip the log

Place them onto a new sheet parchment paper and freeze for 10-15 minutes.

Once they have chilled, the Keto Brick will turn into a shell over the soft center.
