NOTES

– I USED MAYVERS SUPER COCONUT SPREAD AS THE NUT BUTTER, YOU COULD USE ALMOND/CASHEW/SUNFLOWER/PEANUT BUTTER

-IF WANTING TO MAKE YOUR OWN CHOCOLATE, MIX 3 TBS CACAO POWDER, 3 TBS MELTED COCONUT OIL & 2 TBS SWEETENER UNTIL COMBINED

-YOU COULD BLEND IN SOME CHERRIES WITH THE COCONUT FILLING TO MAKE THIS A CHERRY RIPE SLICE, YOU MAY NEED TO ADD MORE COCONUT SO THAT THE FILLING ISN’T TOO WET
