Step 3:

Place the mold in the freezer for about 1 hour to let it harden.

Step 4:

After an hour, remove it from the mold, then take off the parchment paper. Place on a plate or cutting board. Cut into small rectangles.

Step 5:

Slice the semi-sweet chocolate into small pieces and place in a heat-proof bowl. Melt in the microwave. You can also fill a saucepan with some water and bring it to a boil. Place the bowl on top (it should not touch the water). Lower the heat to simmer and melt the chocolate while stirring regularly.

Step 6:

Prepare a baking sheet or plate with parchment paper. Dip the coconut bars into the melted semi-sweet chocolate. Remove the excess chocolate by sliding it into the edge of the bowl and place on the parchment paper.

Step 7:

Once the chocolate has set, they are ready to serve. Enjoy!
