• 1 tbsp. coconut flour
• 4 tbsp. cartoned coconut milk
• 30 g dark chocolate – to coat

Directions:

• Mix the Casein, coconut flour and milk in a bowl until you get a ‘dough’ that you can shape with your hands. If it’s too wet, add a tiny bit more coconut flour. If it’s too crumbly, add a bit more Casein. If you’d like to give your bars that extra coconut crunch, you can also add a tbsp. of coconut flakes too.
• Shape your dough into two or three rectangles, pressing the bars against a hard surface to them some straight angles.
• Melt your dark chocolate in a bain marie (a glass bowl on top of a pot of boiling water). Once it has melted, dunk your bars in there.
• Place them in the fridge for a couple of hours to set the chocolate.

Macros per bar (out of three, without the coconut flakes as these are optional):
