Ingredients
  

2 cups fresh or frozen pineapple chunks

1 cup full-fat coconut milk

1/4 cup honey or maple syrup (adjust based on sweetness preference)

1/4 cup unsweetened shredded coconut

1 tablespoon fresh lime juice

1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract

Pinch of sea salt

Optional: extra shredded coconut or chopped nuts for topping

Instructions
 

Blend Ingredients: In a blender or a food processor, combine the pineapple chunks, coconut milk, honey or maple syrup, shredded coconut, lime juice, vanilla extract, and a pinch of sea salt. Blend the mixture until it reaches a smooth and creamy consistency.

    Taste and Adjust: Once blended, taste the mixture to check the sweetness. If you prefer it sweeter, add a little more honey or maple syrup, then blend briefly again to incorporate.

      Prepare the Mold: Carefully pour the pineapple-coconut mixture into silicone molds for easy removal, or use a compatible baking dish lined with parchment paper for easier lifting later. Use a spatula to spread the mixture evenly and ensure uniform thickness.

        Freeze the Bars: Transfer the molds or baking dish to the freezer. Allow the mixture to freeze for a minimum of 4-6 hours, or until the bars are solid and completely firm to the touch.

          Unmold and Serve: After freezing, gently remove the bars from the molds. If using a baking dish, carefully lift the parchment paper to release the entire block of frozen mixture. Let it sit at room temperature for a few minutes if necessary, to soften slightly for easier slicing.

            Optional Topping: For an extra touch, sprinkle some additional shredded coconut or chopped nuts on top of the bars before serving, enhancing both texture and presentation.

              Slice and Enjoy: Cut the frozen mixture into bars or squares according to your preference. Enjoy these refreshing tropical treats immediately! Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the freezer for up to one month.
