A very easy recipe.

Chocolate coconut macaroon sweets.

Melt a bar of Organica vegan milk chocolate (or whatever chocolate you prefer) and mix in enough desiccated coconut to form a firm mixture. Either put teaspoon sized dollops onto greaseproof paper on a plate or put same sized dollops into small sweet cases. Place in the fridge to set.

That's what I based them on :) I saw some a few days ago on a sweet stall and thought it couldn't be that hard to veganise them.

I made about 15 sweets and they'd gone within the hour - not all eaten by me I hasten to add!
