Three Ingredient Mounds Bars
Three Ingredient Mounds Bars are a quick and delicious treat made with sweetened coconut, chocolate, and condensed milk.
Ingredients
For the Bars
- 1 cup Shredded Coconut Can use unsweetened for less sweetness.
- 1 cup Chocolate Chips Milk chocolate is popular, but dark chocolate works well too.
- 1/2 cup Sweetened Condensed Milk Using light condensed milk will reduce calorie content.
Instructions
Preparation
- Mix shredded coconut and sweetened condensed milk in a bowl until well combined.
- Press the coconut mixture firmly into a lined baking dish, ensuring an even layer.
- In a microwave-safe bowl or a double boiler, melt the chocolate chips, stirring until smooth.
- Pour the melted chocolate over the coconut layer, spreading it evenly across the surface.
- Refrigerate the dish for at least 2 hours or until the chocolate is set firmly.
- Once set, remove the bars from the dish and cut into squares or rectangles before serving.
Notes
Chef Tips: Use high-quality chocolate chips for a richer taste, and make sure to line your baking dish for easy removal. Allow chocolate to cool slightly before pouring it over the coconut layer. For enhanced flavor, add a pinch of salt to the coconut mixture. You can also mix in some chopped nuts for alternative texture.
