Ingredients:
- 1 cup raw oats
- 1/2 cup coconut flakes
- 1 tablespoon ground cinnamon
- 2 tablespoons agave nectar
 
 
  Recipe: 
- Put all ingredients in the food processor and pulse to a fine grain.  It will start to become dough-like. Add more agave if the mixture is loose.

- Place it on wax paper to display or on a nice platter.  Enjoy!

  Time: 20 mins
Ingredients:
- 1 cup shredded unsweetened coconut flakes
- 5 tablespoons honey
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1/2 cup unsweatened cocoa powder
- 1/4 cup coconut oil
Recipe:
- Pulse shredded coconut, honey, ground cinnamon & vanilla extract in a food processor. 
- Form bars whatever shape or size you like - you have to squeeze them together with your hand so the shape holds.  Let them freeze for at least 10 mins. 
- Mix unsweetened cocoa powder with coconut oil in a bowl. (Tip: you can use margarine or butter instead).  *Add more coconut oil if the mixture is too thick - you want it to be thin enough so you can dip the bars in without them breaking apart*
- Take bars out of the freezer and dip them into the chocolate mixture, then set them on parchment paper. 
- Dust with cocoa powder & set in the refrigerator for at least 15 mins before devouring.
- Enjoy!
