Ingredients
- 7 oz coconut 200 gr, desiccated shredded

Instructions
- In a food processor add desiccated coconut, coconut milk and maple syrup.
- Mix for 30 seconds or until combined, scraping down the mixture with a spatula if necessary.
- Shape the mixture into small logs and arrange them on a baking tray covered with parchment. Refrigerate for 1 hour in the fridge, or in the freezer for 10-15 min.
- In the meantime melt the chocolate in the microwave, or in a heat-proof bowl over a pan filled with simmering water. Once melted allow to cool slightly.
- Dip each bounty bar into melted chocolate and arrange on a cooling rack.
- Make sure you put some parchment paper beneath the rack to catch the chocolate in excess.
- Allow your bounty bars to set then serve.

Notes
- Do not shake the coconut milk can; only use the solid part and discard the watery portion for best results.
- Chill the shaped coconut logs well before dipping to make coating easier and cleaner.
- Store the finished bars in the refrigerator; they keep for up to five days.
