Real Food Bounty Bars

I don’t eat refined sugar….but if I had to say what “was” my favourite all time chocolate bar, without hesitation it ‘was’ a Bounty bar! I have always been a lover of anything coconut, but not mad about large amounts of chocolate. For me the Bounty was the perfect combination of coconut with a little bit of chocolate. I set out to make this and discovered lots of recipes on the internet. The common thread was of course coconut, but also condensed milk (argh) and in some cases icing sugar as well! Yuk! Why would I bother making my own if they were still a refined sugar  bomb? Then I remembered Quirky Cooking’s  homemade, dairy free, refined sugar free condensed milk. Yes!
