Crazy Coconut Bars


Today I made some quick but healthy choccy bars! The recipe is from tone it up dot com, and taste amazing. There made from dark chocolate and coconut with a little honey (and almonds if you like). I didn’t have all the right ingredients so made a few changes and think there still pretty awesome! I have put my version of the recipe below if anyone makes them please let me know in the comments.

    1/4 cup olive oil (flavourless)

Melt chocolate in a microwave or on the stove.
Pour a spoonful of chocolate over the bottom of a mould (if you don’t have a mould silicon cupcake cases wok well too)

Girls Night In

As a very typical girly girl I love a girly night in. What with the rubbish weather at the moment and the fog creating an almost wintery feel me and my girlfriends decided to have a classic girls night in and good old gossip! A couple bottles of red wine, chick flicks, chocolate and Jim jams – a great night in my opinion. Nothing quite like the classics like pretty women and a jumbo bar of galaxy to put me in a good mood! And that’s all for tonight, just a quick one!
