Instructions

In a saucepan over medium heat, melt cocoa butter, sugar, milk, oil, and vanilla. Bring to a simmer and cook until it’s well combined and slightly thickened. Set aside to cool slightly.
In a bowl, combine coconut flour, collagen, and shredded coconut.
To that, add the melted cocoa butter mixture and combine.
Finally, mix in the chopped nuts.
In an 8X8 pan***, evenly spread out mixture. You can top the bars with extra shredded coconut and nuts, if desired. Just make sure to slightly press it into the dough.
Freeze for 20 minutes to set or refrigerate overnight.
Slice however you’d like and ENJOY!

Recipe Notes

*if you don’t have coconut milk (I used the So Delicious Brand of “culinary coconut milk”), you can sub. cashew or almond milk. I would just only add 1/2 cup at first, and add more towards the end of the recipe if you need it! It’s not as creamy as coconut milk and you don’t want the bar dough too runny!

**sub 6 scoops of Vital Proteins Collagen Peptides or 1/2 cup of almond flour – these two subs will yield bars with less of a coconut flavor.

***I like to line the pan with parchment paper. Just make sure to cut it bigger than the pan so you can pop them out for an easy clean up!
