Preparation method

Ingredients overview

100 g shredded coconut
25 g cooking coconut oil
40 g polyfloral honey
80 g dark chocolate

Prepare a blender and add the shredded coconut, 20 g of coconut oil, and honey. Blend until the ingredients are completely homogenized. Then, take ice cube molds, press the mixture firmly into them, and place them in the freezer for at least 30 minutes.

After the coconut mixture has hardened, melt the chocolate using a bain-marie: put a little water in a pot and place a glass or stainless steel bowl on top, ensuring it doesn't touch the bottom of the pot. Bring the water to a boil, then reduce the heat to minimum. Break the chocolate into pieces in the bowl and add the remaining 5 g of coconut oil. Stir continuously until the chocolate melts slowly (approximately 3-4 minutes).

Remove the coconut cubes from the freezer and molds, then dip them in the melted chocolate until uniformly coated. Let them harden on baking paper for 1-2 minutes, then they can be served.

Chef's tip

For an even finer texture, you can grind the coconut before adding the rest of the ingredients. Store the bites in the refrigerator in a closed container to keep the chocolate crispy.
