Easy Homemade Bounty Bars Recipe
Easy Homemade Bounty Bars Recipe Made with just four simple ingredients and ready in minutes!
Although they need time to chill in the refrigerator, these homemade Bounty bars have minimal prep time and taste just as good (if not better!) than the real thing.
Bounty bars are essentially a delicious chocolate coconut candy bar. A sweet, coconut center, covered in chocolate. One of the most delicious and loved food combinations is chocolate and coconut! They are one of my all-time favorite candy bars, and actually, super simple to whip up!
I experimented a little with pretty much the same ingredients of my coconut balls as a filling for the bars and coated it all with homemade chocolate. In the end, I can’t stop eating these bars! For my taste these bars really are better than the original. But don’t just believe me, try it yourself!
As you can see, once all ingredients are there and set out, it’s extremely simple to make and is a huge crowd pleaser! First, combine ingredients in a bowl.
Mould them! Wet your hands when moulding the bars as this makes them easier to shape!
Refrigerate them for about one hour
Melt the chocolate and you are ready for dipping time 🙂
Cool them one more time and enjoy!
