Ingredients
1 ½
cups
unsweetened shredded coconut
¼
cup
coconut oil
melted
¼
cup
honey
18
raw almonds
4
ounces
baking chocolate

Instructions
Line a loaf pan with parchment paper. Set aside.
Mix the shredded coconut, melted coconut oil and honey in a large bowl until well combined and sticky.
Press the mixture into the prepared pan. Line the almonds evenly across the filling in 3 rows of 6. Press lightly to secure.
Chill in the refrigerator until completely firm, at least 2 hours or overnight
Once solid, lift from the pan using the parchment paper, and use a very sharp knife to cut into 18 equal squares.
Use a fork to dip each bar into the melted chocolate. Allow any excess chocolate to drip and place back on the parchment paper.
Refrigerate again until the chocolate sets, about 30 minutes. Keep refrigerated until ready to serve.
