Instructions:
-
Microwave the Coconut Oil: Begin by microwaving the coconut oil for approximately 20 seconds. This will soften the oil and make it easier to combine with the other ingredients.
-
Combine with Coconut Milk and Stevia: Once the coconut oil is warm, add the coconut milk and stevia drops. Stir thoroughly to combine all the ingredients into a smooth mixture.
-
Add Coconut Flakes: Stir in the unsweetened coconut flakes. Make sure the flakes are evenly distributed in the mixture for the best texture.
-
Mold the Mixture: Pour the coconut mixture into molds of your choice. Silicone molds work particularly well for easy removal later.
-
Chill to Set: Let the mixture chill in the fridge for 1 to 2 hours, allowing it to harden and take shape.
-
Serve and Enjoy: After the chilling time is complete, pop the coconut bombs out of the molds. Serve them as a refreshing, crispy, and creamy dessert. Enjoy the tropical flavor!
