processor.
- Next, add
in shredded coconut, honey, and salt. Blend until a thick dough forms.
- Press
the dough into a silicone candy mold or a small baking dish. Place in the
freezer for about 30 minutes to set.
- Add
cacao paste and cacao butter into a heat safe bowl and microwave in 20
second increments in the microwave until smooth.
- Next,
add in maple syrup, vanilla extract, and salt. Stir until smooth.
- Dip
each piece of candy into the chocolate and place on a parchment paper
lined baking sheet or large plate. Repeat until they’re all covered!
- Top
with extra shredded coconut, and freeze for about 30 minutes to set. If
you pressed the filling into a baking dish, just pour the chocolate
overtop and freeze until it sets. Cut into small bite sized pieces and enjoy!
