Who else is obsessed with the combination of chocolate and coconut? Coconut is one of my favorite flavors and you know how much I love chocolate. You can only imagine how excited I am to share this recipe. It has to be hands down one of the best no-bake coconut bars I have ever made.

I’ve tried out a similar recipe before, but this time I decided to add a raw cocoa hazelnut base and topoff with a deliciously creamy chocolate ganache. One bite and you’ll find yourself in heaven, seriously!! Simply decadent!

As always,  these mouthwatering paleo coconut bars are gluten-free, refined-sugar free, and plant-based. Because of the high coconut and cacao content they are also packed with Omega 3. This is the perfect healthy fat bomb recipe if you ask me.

Tips to make the perfect No-Bake Chocolate Coconut Bars

• When using coconut milk/cream, make sure to refrigerate the coconut milk/cream overnight and use the solid part only.  By doing this, you’ll ensure a thick and creamy consistency. If  add all of the liquid as well, the bars won’t hold in the refrigerator.
• Use plastic foil to prepare the bars.
• To make sure these bars stay on the healthier side, I’d recommend using paleo/stevia sweetened chocolate for the ganache.

That’s all you need to know! Overall this recipe is pretty simple and there’s no reason to miss out on these tasty no-bake chocolate coconut bars 😛
