Homemade Mounds Bars

Homemade Mounds Bars have a blissful chocolate + coconut taste. They're even better than the store-bought version! 

Servings: 15 bars
Course: Dessert
Cuisine: American

Ingredients

  • 3 cups unsweetened shredded coconut
  • 1/2 teaspoon Maldon salt (or another flaked sea salt)
  • 2/3 cup sweetened condensed milk
  • 10 ounces bittersweet chocolate, melted

Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. Line an 8x8-inch baking pan with parchment paper or tin foil. Spray with nonstick spray.
  2. In a medium bowl mix together the coconut, salt, and condensed milk until combined. Press mixture into prepared pan and spread into an even layer with a rubber spatula. Freeze for 15 minutes, or until slightly hardened.
  3. In a small microwave-safe bowl melt the chocolate in 15-second bursts in the microwave, stirring between every burst, until smooth.
  4. Remove coconut mixture from pan. Cut into 1-inch bars. Dip the coconut bars in the chocolate, turning to coat with a fork. Let excess drip before placing on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Place mounds bars in fridge until chocolate has set. Bars can be kept in the fridge for up to 4 days.
