Equipment
- Silicone Molds
- Microwave-safe Bowl
- Medium Bowl
Ingredients
First Chocolate Layer
- 5 ounces unsweetened baker's chocolate 100% cocoa
- 1 tablespoon unsalted butter
- 5 tablespoons powdered monk fruit or allulose blend sweetener
Creamy Coconut Filling
- 1 cup unsweetened shredded coconut
- 3 tablespoons melted coconut oil
- 1 tablespoon powdered monk fruit or allulose blend sweetener
Final Chocolate Topping
- 7 ounces unsweetened baker's chocolate 100% cocoa
- 1 tablespoon unsalted butter
- 5 tablespoons powdered monk fruit or allulose blend sweetener
Instructions
- First Chocolate Layer: In a small microwave-safe bowl, combine your unsweetened chocolate chunks and unsalted butter. Gently melt them in the microwave, stirring every 30 seconds until the mixture is smooth and glossy (this usually takes about 60 seconds). Stir in 5 tablespoons of your powdered sweetener until it's fully combined. Pour about 1 teaspoon of this rich chocolate mixture into each cavity of your silicone molds. Pop them into the freezer for 30 minutes to firm up.
- Creamy Coconut Filling: While the first chocolate layer is chilling, grab a medium bowl. Mix the shredded coconut, melted coconut oil, and 1 tablespoon of powdered sweetener until everything is beautifully combined. Let this mixture sit in the fridge for just 5 minutes to make it a bit easier to handle. Now, carefully press about 1-2 teaspoons of this coconut filling into the center of each frozen chocolate base in your molds. Don't worry if it doesn't reach the edges perfectly – the final chocolate layer will cover it! Return the molds to the freezer for another 30 minutes.
- Final Chocolate Topping: Repeat the process from the first step for your final chocolate layer: melt the remaining 7 ounces of unsweetened chocolate with 1 tablespoon of unsalted butter, then stir in the final 5 tablespoons of powdered sweetener. Carefully pour about 1.5 teaspoons of this melted chocolate over each coconut-filled mold, making sure the coconut is completely covered. Place the molds back in the freezer for a final 30 minutes until everything is perfectly set.
- Enjoy: Once your keto Mounds bars are perfectly firm, simply pop them out of the molds and savor your delicious, homemade, and guilt-free treat! For optimal freshness, store any leftover bars in the freezer.
