LOW CARB CHOCOLATE COCONUT BARS RECIPE - (4.5/5)

Steps:
- In food processor, process coconut oil, whipping cream, Da VinciĀ® Sugar Free Syrup, butter, chocolate whey protein, powdered milk, cocoa and erythritol. Stir in 3/4 cup coconut. Press into lightly greased (spray bottom of pan lightly with Pam) 9 x 5-inch loaf pan. Sprinkle remaining coconut over top and press coconut into mixture with back of a soup or dessert spoon. Freeze until firm and then refrigerate. Helpful Hint: This is quite a fudge-like confection and I love the combo of coconut and chocolate. It was sweet enough for me, but you could add the contents of a couple of Splenda packets, if desired - taste and see. It's hard to believe that this confection is actually good for you. Don't have an ounce of guilt over this one! This confection could be cut into 8 bars - as in protein bars - and carried in a plastic baggie in your purse. It will be a little softer, but you could always mitigate that by adding a couple tablespoons more of the whey protein or leave out a tablespoon of the sugar free syrup.

COCONUT CHOCOLATE BARS - LOW CARB
From The Nourished Caveman/Vivica Menegaz. Low carb. Recipe calls for Stevia. I prefer honey, but I think this would make it too goopy to harden, so I went with the Stevia. Cook time is chill time.
