Growing your own food isn’t just about saving money, it’s about so much more.I truly believe that as humans we posses an innate desire or need to take a hand-on role in the production of the food we consume. Whether through growing your own, foraging in the wild, hunting or even going to a local farm, knowing exactly where your food comes from provides a deep sense of appreciation for what you eat.

Do you love Chocolate Bars? Have you ever thought of making your own versions at home? Homemade bounty bars are so easy to make – you only need 3 ingredients!

So these may not be the best looking bounty bars ever, but they taste just like the real thing! Trust me when I say that it doesn’t matter what they look like. But first of all, if you’ve never had a bounty bar before, they are amazing, especially if you like coconut.

The sweet coconut filling is not as hard to make as you might think, a simple combination of coconut and condensed milk will recreate the filling of the classic chocolate bar.

Bounty bars are one of my brother favorite chocolates, so I wanted to surprise him with these. When a friend posted a simple recipe for homemade Bounty bars, I had to try it.They are so easy to make, it literally only takes 30 seconds to mix the ingredients together, and then a few minutes to shape the bars and coat them in chocolate.

When he found them in the fridge and tried them, he had to come and tell me how they tasted just like the real thing. So if a true bounty bar fan can’t tell the difference, well then these must be pretty close to the real thing. Perfect for the holiday season or any occasion!
