Last week I featured a video series about coconuts and all the amazing products you can get from 1 organic coconut. In one of the videos, How To Make Your Own Organic Coconut Butter, I showed you how easy it was to make your own coconut butter. You can do this with freshly dehydrated coconut flakes or store bought organic coconut flakes. Once I tasted homemade coconut butter, there was no going back to buying the stuff out of the jar, homemade is so amazing!

How pretty! I didn’t know the shredded coconut would become runny. I guess I’ve never gotten past the flour stage.
Also Stuart did you know if you whip coconut oil for 7-10 minutes it will become a lot like whipped cream? Not coconut milk, but coconut oil!
No, thanks for the tip!
I might try some frosting with it on my coconut cut out cookies…
Nummy Halle…
Looks great! Must try.
I made something similar…sweetened with a bit of Steviva, added some walnuts for crunch and drizzled with a bit of dark chocolate melted with coconut oil…What a treat!! I made them in a mini muffin pan which is the perfect little bite-size for me.

What kind of molds did you you use? The bark is so pretty.
Thank you, we like them. We also use them for homemade ice pops too. I think I got them at Jo Ann Fabrics awhile back. They were over in the homemade candy isle. I have had them for several years, but last year I bought some others there, so I know they do carry them still.
No baking for the cookies?
Nope, they are a no bake cookie/bark.
