As if I needed yet another addictive no-bake recipe on the blog.

Oh but one can never have enough no-bake recipes, right?

Especially when there is coconut involved.

You know what else one can never have enough of?

Obviously I would say chocolate.

The eleven different types of chocolate bars in my kitchen pantry attest to that. My roommate would say makeup, as her collection could stock three separate branches of Sephora.

My sister would probably say shoes. Although she might say nailpolish.

She really does have a lot of nailpolish.

And one can never have enough coconut.

Except maybe my crazy boyfriend who just yesterday informed me that he doesn’t like coconut.

I think I stared at him blankly for over five minutes, trying to comprehend that statement.

You know, I also once dated a guy who didn’t like chocolate… 😕

Fill in the Blank: One can never have enough ________.

Dishes? Scarves? Jars of peanut butter?

I’m also going to throw jeans and bathing suits onto my list, because even with all the ones I already own, I always want to buy more.

Oh, and puppies… I can’t go into Petsmart on adoption days for fear of taking home all the rescue puppies!

Ingredients

  • 1 cup unsweetened shredded coconut (80g)
  • 1/4 cup agave or pure maple syrup, or 1/4 cup water and stevia to taste
  • 2 tbsp virgin coconut oil (For substitutions, see nutrition link below)
  • 1/2 tsp pure vanilla extract
  • 1/8 tsp salt
  • optional mini chocolate chips

Instructions 

  • Combine all ingredients in a food processor. (Mixing by hand will still taste good, but the bars will crumble.) Squish into any small container–I used a 7×5–and refrigerate for an hour before trying to cut. Or freeze for 15 minutes. Can be stored in the fridge or freezer, for at least a few weeks.

    Hi Katie,

    It’s been ages since I’ve commented… it’s been a busy summer. I think ti’s great that you posted this recipe. I made these this morning, from my own very similar recipe, just before I saw this. We must be thinking alike! Anyway, just thought I would pop in to say hi and still think you are great!!

    1. Chocolate-Covered Katie says:

      Just yesterday, I came across the photo of you with all the hay. I was like, “I wonder how she is doing.” Good to hear from you! 🙂

  3. Arleen says:

    Coconut Crack! This is just awesome! On tomorrow’s menu.
    I can never get too many gummy bears. BJ’s sells 6 lb. bags but they never stick around my house for long!

  4. Saguna says:

    Ah, these look lovely… There has been such a surge of coconut based recipes lately! I’m actually quite excited to try these with a bit of coconut whipped cream on top!

    One can never have enough recipes! One the reasons I am addicted to food blogs= I love trying new foods in new ways.

  5. Olivia@ OmNom Love says:

    These look ridiculously easy to make & delicious to boot!

    One can never have enough larabars. Or chocolate. Or peanut butter. Or shoes. Or- the list goes on and on! 😉

  6. Girlnapurpledres says:

    These remind me of coconut rocks that my aunty used to make…sigh…memories! 🙂

  7. Ame' says:

    One can never get enough movies. I own over 800, thanks to my cousin who left me all his when he passed away (he was a professor of media history), so I always have something on hand to watch. I love movies!!!

  8. Heather says:

    Just made these but used Coconut Water instead of the agave/maple syrup and added some cacao nibs to give them a little chocolate kick! Very yummy

  9. Sam @ Better With Sprinkles says:

    shoes. Never ever, will I have enough shoes.

    My mom doesn’t like coconut either – I will never understand it!

  10. Lisa @ The Raw Serenity says:

    I really do with you were my house mate….

  11. Aimee says:

    I think it would be even better if you dipped it in or drizzled your homemade chocolate on it.. 🙂 Instant both! going to have to try as they are another yummy my brother WON”T eat.. and it’s great to have snacks that are all mine!

  12. laura says:

    I’ve never really liked coconut either, but I’ve only ever had the sweetened fake stuff. Maybe if I had some unsweetened organic coconut I would like it.

  13. Mozzie says:

    well, i noticed that many people say they don’t like coconut, meaning “i don’t like this hard-to-get-out-from-between-my-teeth-thing”. To many people coconut reminds of something dry and messy, which doesn’t allow them to fully enjoy the taste. now be careful, i have to confess – before i tried making your coconut butter fudge, i was one of such people as well.. try making your chocolate fudge for your friend, my hating-coconut friends tried it and they confessed that this is the only form of coconut they ever enjoyed 🙂

  14. India says:

    HEYA
    I love coconut, bounties, water, milk, macaroons!
    Thought it was healthy but its so high in saturated fat, isn’t this the bad kind, I thought it was only in animal products x x x

  15. Darcie says:

    Ooooh, I was in need of a good snack recipe to make with everything I already have. Perfect! I sort of want to halve the coconut and put some crispy brown rice cereal in. Maybe I’ll do both.

    And, one can never have too much fabric!

  16. jenica says:

    One can never haven enough socks and underwear. No matter how many I have, they are still always the first things to force me to do laundry.
