This delicious 2‑ingredient coconut bark is one of the most addictive snacks I have ever made! It’s the kind of treat that seems innocent enough at first… until you realise you’ve wandered back to the fridge three times for “just one more piece”. The combination of rich dark chocolate and sweet, nutty coconut makes it almost impossible to resist, and every batch disappears faster than I expect. It’s one of those recipes that barely has time to set before someone is sneaking a corner off the edge – it doesn’t last long in our house!

More Chocolate–Coconut Recipes to Try

I’ve always been a big fan of the chocolate‑and‑coconut combo, so coconut bark was naturally going to be popular with me. The chocolate and coconut combination also pops up in a few of my other recipes too. So, if you love these flavours as much as I do, you might also enjoy my quick and easy chocolate coconut slice, my yum yum balls, and my chocolate brown sugar cookies (with coconut).

Last year, a member of my family was diagnosed with a sulphite allergy. For those who don’t know, sulphites are used as a preservative in a range of products ranging from wine to dried fruits. Lately we’ve been trying to eliminate all sulphite-containing products from our pantry. I like to use desiccated coconut when baking, so I was disappointed when I discovered that it contains sulphites!

Switching to Sulphite‑Free Coconut

I was worried that I would have to bake without coconut until I discovered organic coconut flakes. I’m a convert to organic coconut flakes now because not only are they preservative free, in my opinion they have a better coconut flavour. It is hard not to snack on the flakes as you’re baking because they are that good!

In theory, coconut flakes and desiccated coconut should taste the same but I think the flakes are so much better. When I first tasted them I thought – these would go perfectly with chocolate. So that is what I did to make this yummy 2 Ingredient Coconut Bark!

There’s a bit of a bounty taste to it, so if you love bounty bars you will also love this yummy coconut bark. It has been very popular in my house — it disappears very quickly each time I make it!

The Easiest Chocolate Coconut Bark You’ll Ever Make

There’s nothing fussy or complicated about this recipe — just a couple of steps and you’re done. Just melt the chocolate and mix in half the coconut. Then pour it into the prepared tin and scatter the rest of the coconut flakes on top. It couldn’t be easier; you just have to wait for it to set in the fridge!
