Ingredients
  

1 cup rolled oats

1 cup shredded unsweetened coconut

1/2 cup almond butter (or any nut butter of your choice)

1/4 cup honey or maple syrup

1/4 cup cocoa powder

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

1/4 teaspoon salt

1/2 cup dark chocolate chips (plus extra for topping, optional)

2 tablespoons coconut oil (for melting chocolate, optional)

Instructions
 

Prepare the Pan: Line an 8x8 inch square baking dish with parchment paper, leaving some overhang on the sides for easy removal later.

    Mix Dry Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, combine the rolled oats, shredded coconut, cocoa powder, and salt. Stir well to ensure they are evenly mixed.

      Combine Wet Ingredients: In a separate bowl, mix together the almond butter, honey (or maple syrup), and vanilla extract until smooth.

        Combine Mixtures: Pour the wet mixture into the dry ingredients and mix until everything is thoroughly combined. The mixture should be sticky and hold together when pressed.

          Add Chocolate Chips: Gently fold in the dark chocolate chips, reserving a few to sprinkle on top if desired.

            Press into Pan: Transfer the mixture to the prepared baking dish. Using a spatula or your hands, press the mixture down evenly into the pan, making sure it is well compacted.

              Chill in Refrigerator: Cover the pan with plastic wrap or foil and place it in the refrigerator for 1-2 hours to allow the bars to set.

                Melt Extra Chocolate (Optional): If you'd like to drizzle chocolate on top, melt the reserved chocolate chips with coconut oil in a microwave-safe bowl in 30-second increments until smooth.

                  Add Topping: Once the bars have set, remove them from the dish using the parchment overhang. Cut into squares or bars. If desired, drizzle the melted chocolate over the top and let it harden.

                    Serve and Store: Enjoy your delicious No-Bake Chocolate Coconut Bliss Bars immediately or store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to one week.
