  7. Step 7: Let Them Set - Refrigerate the coated bars for about 15-20 minutes until the chocolate hardens.

Notes

  • For a tropical flavor, add crushed pineapple to the coconut mixture.
  • Store bars in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to two weeks.
  • Wrap bars individually in plastic wrap for freezing; they last up to three months.
