Add the shredded coconut, coconut oil, full fat coconut milk, maple syrup, vanilla and salt to your food processor, and mix on high for 30 seconds until combined. (You can also mix by hand in a bowl, however the bars will not be as compact).

Using your hands, shape small amounts of the coconut mixture into bars. You can also toss the entire mixture into a bread loaf pan, cut into even bars, then shape and round them out to the shape you desire.

Arrange your coconut bars on a baking tray lined with parchment paper and freeze them for 15 minutes.

While the homemade bounty bars set in the freezer, melt the chocolate and coconut oil in the microwave or double boiler.

Then arrange the bars on a wire rack and cover each one of them with melted chocolate. Using a fork, dip the bars into the chocolate and coat all sides. You can pour additional chocolate over each bar.

Allow your vegan bounty bars to set for about 15 minutes in the fridge. Then they’re all ready to be devoured!
