Prep Time 5 minutes
Total Time 5 minutes
Yield 10 - 12 patties

Ingredients

  • 1 1/2 cups unsweetened shredded coconut
  • 3 tbsp pure maple syrup or honey or agave (a keto option is included above)
  • 3 tbsp coconut oil
  • 1/4 tsp pure vanilla extract (optional)
  • 3 oz chocolate chips (or see substitution above)
  • optional 1 tsp oil

Instructions

  • To make homemade Mounds bars, start by blending the first three ingredients and optional vanilla in a blender or food processor (not by hand, or they fall apart) until sticky and no longer crumbly. Smush into Mounds bar shapes. Place on a parchment or wax-lined plate, and chill in the refrigerator or freezer until hard. Carefully melt the chocolate, then stir in the optional oil if you want a smoother coating. Dip cold coconut mounds in chocolate. Chill to set, and store leftovers in the fridge or freezer so they maintain their shape.
