These look just AMAZING!!! I can’t eait to try them out with my kids! They bought love to get in the kitchen with me and make messes
That is great to hear!
Looks so good!!
I have to try these…look delicious! (and perfect for my two grandsons that have food allergies.)
I think I”ll be eating a few myself!
Great!!
What can we use if we don’t have sweetened condensed coconut milk? I can’t find it.
You can use regular sweetened condensed milk but that is the only swap. It is on amazon or at sprouts or whole foods!
Amazing!!! So easy to make, I know the ingredients going into it and it’s a nice treat for the kids.
So glad to hear!
Quick, easy, delicious!!!!!
The best combo!
Amazing!! We added a lil dollop of crunchy peanut butter on top then cooled, and then covered w/ chocolate!! AMAZING!!! Found the sweetened condensed coconut milk at wal-mart!
wowww great idea!!
Made them with my 3 yo and completely forgot the coconut sugar, but they still turned out delicious. Also was able to sub coconut oil for ghee without an issue.
Oh good to know!!
Made them. Ate them. Loved them. Will make again ASAP. 10/10 for sure
That is awesome!
These were so much fun to make and so good! Happy to have a healthier treat in the house especially during the pandemic when I’m snacking more than usual.
Agreed!!
