Copycat Almond Joy Bars

Whoever came up with the combination of coconut, chocolate, and almonds in a no-bake form is a genius. These Copycat Almond Joy Bars are delicious, chewy, and full of flavor. They only require 5 ingredients and are fairly easy to make.

I just love to take a bite out of the shiny chocolate tops and be surprised by the chewiness of the coconut and the crunch of the almond. If you’re not a fan of nuts or suffer from allergies, simply omit it from the recipe.

This week has been rainy and chilly here in Miami. My girls and I have spent our afternoons cuddled up doing homework and practicing piano. Yesterday we got bored and decided to make these Copycat Almond Joy Bars on a whim.

These bars are perfect to make with kids since they don’t require any baking. I will show you below how the process goes. So wash your hands and get ready for some magic:

The first thing we do is mix some coconut flakes with condensed milk. Yum!

Now here comes the messy part: my girls grabbed a few spoonfuls of this mixture and shaped bars with their hands.

Now we refrigerate the coconut for at least 30 minutes. To ensure that they are firm enough to coat with the chocolate

Now we add some roasted almonds and then we drizzle some shiny delicious ganache. Ganache is simply a mixture of chocolate and cream.

Finally, we refrigerate them for 30 more minutes or until the chocolate has set, and voila! Copycat Almond Joy Bars. Easy, peasy, lemon squeezy! The perfect rainy weather activity.
