Now y’all, this might be the first recipe I’ve done shared in about a month that ain’t got nothin’ to do with the festive season or wintertime. Though if I’m just spitballin’ here, reckon they’d make fantastic stocking stuffers!
I just can’t help myself, y’all. I’m so full of holiday cheer right now, I swear I could find a hint of Christmas spirit in an iced cold glass of lemonade.
Now let’s git to talkin’ ’bout vegan bounty bars. These here coconut-chocolate bars are the absolute perfect mix of moist ‘n sticky but crumbly, and downright loaded with coconut flavor.
Then we dip ’em in smooth, rich dark chocolate. What’s even better is they’re super easy to whip up!
