  4. Place a small pan on medium/low heat. Add the coconut oil, cocoa and maple syrup. Mix until all blended a the cocoa mixture is all smooth and velvety.
  5. Let the cocoa mixture cool slightly and then pour over the almond base. You can sprinkle on some of your favourite topping: nuts, chocolate chips, caramel chunks etc.

  7. To serve, remove the pan from the freezer, lift the bars out of the pan using the parchment handles. To cut the bars, dip a large, sharp knife in very hot water and wipe away the excess water. Very carefully, use the heat from the knife to slice the bars to keep them from cracking. Store in the refrigerator.
