Strawberry Bounty Bites

  • Prep Time: 10 mins - Chill time - 30 mins - 1 hour
  • Difficulty: Easy

  • Ingredients
  • For the strawberry coconut bars:

  • 1 C desiccated coconut

  • 1/4 C coconut cream – thick part only* see note

  • 1/3 C strawberries, hulled & roughly chopped

  • 2 Tbsp maple syrup – I use sf monk fruit maple – more or less to taste

  • 2 tsp vanilla

  • a pinch of salt

  • 1 scoop vanilla protein powder – technically opt but I love the extra flavour, nutritional boost + pre/pro-biotics it brings – brand recs & cheeky discount below**

  • For the chocolate coating:

  • 1/2 C dark chocolate chips or roughly chopped

  • 1/4-1/2 tsp finely ground instant espresso*** – optional but SO good!

  1. Instructions
  2. Line a small tray (or plate) with baking/parchment paper & set aside.
  3. Place all ingredients for the strawberry bounty bars into your food processor & pulse or process until combined.
  4. Now, you have two options here . . .
    Option A – spoon your strawberry coconut mixture into a silicone mould (I used a small rectangular silicone ice cube tray that I just bought at woolworths but any kind of silicone chocolate mould would work) make sure you press the mixture firmly down into fill the mould and use the back of your spoon to smooth/level out the tops.Gently tap the filled mould on to the counter top a few times to help remove any pesky little air bubbles that may be hiding in the middle of your bars and place them in to the freezer for an hour or two to set.
    Option B – If you don’t have (or want to buy) an ice cube tray or chocolate mould you can  just use your hands to roll the mixture into balls or form little log shapes like the more traditional bounty shape we know & love..
  5. Place your rolled balls (or logs) your prepared baking tray (or plate) and place it in to the freezer for an hour or two to set.
  6. Once your strawberry coconut bars are set, leave them in the freezer while you prepare your chocolate for coating.
  7. Melt chocolate by your preferred method. Remember to add the finely ground instant espresso powder if using.
  8. Taking one bar (or ball or log) at a time, dip the bottom half of each strawberry coconut bite into your melted chocolate.Let any excess chocolate drip off the bottom (pro tip – gently scrape the base on the side of the bowl your melted chocolate is in so it’s nice & smooth) then place on your prepared baking tray.
  9. Drizzle any remaining chocolate over the top of your berry-licious bounty bites.
  10. Enjoy xo

Notes –

These blissful bites of deliciousness are best kept in the fridge & should keep well in an air tight container for 1-2 weeks (but I doubt they will last that long because , yum! ) or you can freeze for up to 3 months.

Note / tips:

*Tip to get the thickest, creamiest coconut cream – open your can of coconut cream & let is sit, uncovered, in the fridge overnight. Then, the next morning when you’re ready to make your beautiful bounty bars you just scrape of the super creamy top layer. You can use the remaining liquid to make smoothies – I pop then in an ice cube tray & freeze for future use.

** I love Macro Mike plant based almond protein powder (have not tested any other kind/brand in this recipe). Its gluten free, dairy free, sugar free, boosted with probiotics & truly tastes all kinds of incredible. Its hands down without question the smoothest, most delicious, elite tasting protein power (plant based/dairy free or otherwise!!) I have ever tried. And I have tried A LOT!  Use AMB-EM to get a cheeky discount of you want to try it

*** I use before you speak coffee high performance instant coffee – not only is it insanely delicious but its also boosted with Marine Collagen, Silica, Camu Camu, Proline, MCT & Biotin. It’s such a great way to add some extra nourishment into your every day coffee routine. EMS10 = 10% off if you want to try it & believe me, you really do!
