Thanks for linking this the other day. I made them today, and they're great! I had some trouble with the chocolate though. As soon as I took it off the stove, it clumped up and turned into a huge mess. I tried it again and then just quickly spooned it on top of the coconut oil part, which of course was slippery and just slid off. They look awful, lol. Frustrating, but the end result is really good!

Hi Halle, do you think adding a 1/2 cup of dessicated coconut to the centres of these yummy treats might work???

@delkelly Hey @delkelly ,

The coconut oil kind of binds the ingredients together and I am afraid that the coconut would not. I think it would be fine to add a little coconut to the coconut oil however.

Thanks Halle, I was thinking rather along the lines of adding dessicated coconut to the recipe, not substituting the oil. @hallecottis @delkelly

Good question. I will always state if it is melted. So in this case it is not melted, so just scoop it out of your container and measure.

Ok, I have to admit it, some times I'm a little dense. When recipes say coconut oil, does it need to be melted and then measured or amount without melting. Sorry, new at this lol I definately can not wait to try these!!
