Chocolate bounty balls

Makes 12- you can always double it

 

Ingredients

100g shredded coconut

1 tbsp honey, some might want 2 tbsp

2 tbsp coconut oil

100g your favourite dark chocolate

Method

In a food processor put your coconut, honey and oil, pulse until it is combined and starts sticking together. You can do it by hand- chop up your coconut then mix in your melted oil and honey. Put in the freezer for a few minutes until firm enough to roll and squeeze into balls- about 10 minutes. Roll and squeeze into balls and return to the freezer for 20 minutes or so- if you don’t the heat of the melted chocolate will melt the coconut oil and make the balls fall apart. Melt you chocolate in a double boiler- this is a pot of simmering water with a glass bowl on top and the chocolate in it. Do not let the water touch the bowl. Stir until melted. Take your coconut balls and roll in the chocolate, let the excess drip off and put on greaseproof baking paper. Put in the fridge to set. Keep in the fridge.
