A really simple low carb, low sugar snack. Something you can keep in the fridge or freezer and have at any moment you are craving something "sweet". Coconut is great as it is low carb, but subtly sweet. It is full of healthy fats. The dark chocolate topping is a fantastic addition, especially if you opt for something slightly bitter like a 90% or higher. If you want to you could add some chopped nuts to the top

- cocoa powder (15g)
- dried coconut flakes (70g)
