I think this is one of my best recipes. This sweet treat tastes extremely good. Moreover it is really easy to prepare and perfect for family events or lazy evenings with your partner or friends. I love all coconut products and living in the Philippines gives me so many opportunities for cheap coconut items. In this recipe I used everything coconut related – healthy, keto, homemade, Bounty, chocolate coconut bars! 🙂
