    This no-bake bounty slice is super healthy and is gluten free, dairy free and refined sugar free. It is one seriously epic raw dessert and comes with a date free base.

    How the No-bake Bounty Slice will look when ready to eat.

    How yummy does this chocolate coconut slice look? The coconut filling which is from my raw bounty bites, was the basis for making this dessert. It is so tasty!

    I originally got the inspiration to make this recipe from the classic chocolate bar - Bounty. I wanted to create a much healthier version which made with wholefood ingredients free from additives and preservatives. 

    RECIPE FEATURES

    Gluten & Dairy Free - suitable for people with gluten and dairy/lactose intolerances.

    Date Free Base - you can use this base component in my other raw slice recipes if you are wanting less dates in your slice.

    Healthy wholefood ingredients - which are easy to find at any supermarket, health store, food markets or on-line store.

    RECIPE INGREDIENTS

    • Cashews or macadamias
    • Almond flour or meal
    • Shredded coconut
    • Sacao powder
    • Coconut milk
    • Coconut oil
    • Maple syrup
    • Vanilla extract
    • Sea salt

    RECIPE TIPS & FAQS

    Can I use this date free base in your other raw dessert recipes?

    You can use this base with my other raw slices and even my mini slice bites. However, if you are making the slice bites, you may need to half the recipe.

    How do I slice it so the chocolate layer does not crack?

    Make sure that you allow it to freeze for 3-4 hours before you slice it, so that the coconut layer is completely frozen. Otherwise the chocolate layer may split when you slice it.
    However, the slice can be hard to slice when it is completely frozen, so I suggest running the knife under hot water and dry with a tea towel. But please be careful not to burn yourself!

    Ingredients

    Base

    • ½ cup cashews macadamias
    • ⅔ cup almond flour or almond meal
    • 3 tablespoons coconut oil
    • 1 tablespoon maple syrup

    Coconut layer

    • ¼ cup coconut oil melted
    • 1 cup coconut milk canned variety
    • 2 tablespoons maple syrup
    • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
    • ¼ teaspoon sea salt
    • 3 cups shredded coconut

    Chocolate layer

    • ½ cup coconut oil
    • 2 tablespoons maple syrup
    • ½ cup cacao powder

    Instructions

    • Make base layer. Process the cashews, almond meal, coconut oil, maple syrup in a blender or food processor until they resemble crumbs. Spoon mixture into a lined square baking tin (20x20cm) and smooth with the back of a spoon. Place in the freezer while you make the coconut layer.
    • Make coconut layer. Add the melted coconut oil and coconut milk to a medium size bowl and whisk to combine well (you want to make sure that there is no separation between the oil and milk). Next, add the maple syrup, vanilla extract and sea salt and mix well. Then, add the shredded coconut and mix until well combined. Pour over the base, smooth with the back of a spoon and place back into the freezer while you make the chocolate layer.
    • Make chocolate layer. Melt the coconut oil in saucepan on low heat. Once melted, remove from heat and add the maple syrup, whisking briskly until well combined. Then add the cacao powder, stirring until well mixed through. Pour the chocolate on top of the coconut layer and make sure it is evenly spread. Place back into the freezer and let it set completely. You want to ensure that all layers are frozen, so it may take 3-4 hours.
    • Slice & store. Remove from the tin, slice straight away and store in an airtight container in the freezer.

    Notes

    • You may need to run the knife under hot water to make it easier to slice and for the top chocolate layer to not crack.
    • Cook time does not include the time it takes for the raw bounty slice to freeze — approximately 3-4 hours, depending on the temperature of your freezer.

      Just made this today. Every layer is delicious and it turned out perfect! I have a sweet tooth and usually cook/bake full sugar/dairy desserts. I wanted to try something different and this was YUM!!!

      Hi, I absolutely loved this recipe. Such a coconut fanatic!
      However my coconut layer did not stick to the base at all! It became its own seperate layer. Do you know why this may have happened or how tips to stop this from happening again?
      Thank you

        Hi Jas, Not sure what might of caused to happen as it has never happened to me before on this recipe. How long after you made the base layer, did you add the coconut layer? And also, did you have the base layer in the freezer while you were making the base layer?

      Hi Ness,
      I'm not very clear.
      Does the filling use dried / dessicated coconut or fresh shredded coconut?
      Please reply! 🙂

      This sounds SO good! I love bounty candy bars, but I have to eat dairy-free, so these are the perfect healthier bounty replacement! Do you think these would work with almonds instead of cashews?
