Overview
A lovely teenager age souvenir, industrial bounties belong normally to the type of comfort food you would avoid as an adult if you are keen to staying in shape. So it was a nice surprise to discover that you can actually prepare delicious home made vegan bounties which are 100% made of healthy ingredients and comply with many dietary restrictions. Also nice to discover how easy and quick they are to prepare (just note that they will need 1hour of idle time to freeze before you can finalise them). Therefore whether as a snack or as a fancy dessert do not hesitate to propose these jewels to your kids or guests. It will make them happy (chocolate and vanilla essential oil) and give them good energy as well as suit any sweet tooth.

Coat the bounty rectanglesOnce the chocolate coating is ready get the rectangles out of the freezer, using 2 forks plunge each rectangle in the chocolate coating, ensure all sides are covered, hold it with the 2 forks for a couple of seconds to drain any extra chocolate and place the rectangle back on the parchment paper to dry. Sprinkle coconut powder or another decoration of your choice on each bounty straight after having coated it (it dries out very quickly). Reserve in the fridge until serving. Eat as a snack or with fresh exotic fruit cuts on a plate for dessert |
