Bounty Chocolate Bites
I’m sure I’m not the only one but once in a while, I have that urge for something sweet, especially chocolate. There’s always dark chocolate 🍫 in the pantry for those urgent cravings. Other times though, these cravings get more sophisticated and from simple chocolate pieces, they turn into bars. Who doesn’t like a nice sweet chocolate bar every now and then? It’s always a great treat to enjoy anytime.
With Halloween 🎃🧙♂️ around the corner, this is the perfect excuse to try to make homemade chocolate bars. So far, I’ve shared my Grandma’s Crunchie Bars, Dulce de Leche Turtles Chocolates, and Reese’s Peanut Butter Cups. Here’s another one for you… my Bounty Chocolate Bites! They taste virtually identical to the ones from the store. The difference is I use dark chocolate instead of milk but you can choose the kind you enjoy most. Also think about it… there’s no added preservatives – BONUS!
As I mentioned, the taste is the same but visually 👀, they’re not. These are not bars but bites which I prefer. It seems that they last longer too, well that’s what I like to think anyway. Here’s a cute story about my Bounty Chocolate Bites. I made some recently and decided to give most to our friend Les. As I’m leaving our place to deliver them to his wife Nitsa, David intercepted me and grabbed a few, lol 😂! I mean, come on now, when ever he wants some, he knows very well that I will make them for him… and for me!
I’m sure you’ve had them before but if not, it’s a delicious combination of coconut 🥥 and chocolate. The only “trick” that I’ll give you is to use a mold for your “treats”. These Bounty Chocolate Bites are a nice snack to enjoy anytime without any tricks, lol!
Happy Halloween!🧚♀️🧟♀️🎃
