Sun, coconut and chocolate
I prepare myself to another week after two days of reclusion.
Work left the sun outside of my window and I get even with chocolate coated coconut…
[This month's Performance magazine featured more two recipes of yours truly!]
Chocolate coconut bars
Makes 18 (13 g each):
100 g grated coconut
140 g condensed milk
200 g 70% dark chocolate, to coat
Combine coconut with condensed milk until smooth.
Refrigerate for 20 minutes.
Remove from the refrigerator and cut small bars.
Melt the chocolate in a double-boiler.
Place the bars on a rack and coat the with the chocolate.
Refrigerate until the chocolate thickens.

A pinch of vanilla, eggs, sugar and cocoa... Unmeasured words, seasoned silences... stir all that I am and set aside in bain marie...

is it weird that I can hear your bar say EAT ME..?
The bar looks delicious. Gorgeous photo as always!
Hi there, what a wonderfully beautiful blog. I can tell already this will become one of my favourites and I anticipate it will quickly become popular with many others!
The photographs are stunning, the food utterly enticing. I look forward to being a regular reader.
The coconut bars above remind me a lot of a chocolate we have over here called ‘Bounty’. Only yours are a lot classier!
It was really interesting to read about how you ended up studying cookery and about your passion for pastry. I’m not a professinal, nor do I have my own blog (I’m only 20 and about to start university studying Fashion Journalism) but I adore baking more so than cookery.
So congratulations, you should be incredibly pleased with your obvious talents.

These look absolutely amazing. I love coconut with chocolate, one of the best combinations in the world!! A gorgeous bite!!
like a piece of art!
wonderful! everything here is beautiful.
please tell me if you used just condensed milk or sweetened condensed milk? we have those 2 varieties over here in usa. thanks
Delicious!! Can we use evaporated milk instead of condensed milk?
Gorgeous, as always, of course! You’re such an artiste!
Hi, I just wanted to say that these are really, really good. I love milk chocolate and made mine with that instead of dark chocolate and I loved it. Kind of reminded me of the Bounty chocolate.
