Easy to Make Almond Joy Candy

Personally, the only candy I ever want to eat out of assorted boxes of chocolates are the coconut ones.

It’s all about the texture for me, and the almond joy recipe we’ve made has that same chewy texture with a slight bite from the hardened chocolate and the almond on top!

You also get to taste the individual flakes of coconut which is important in any good coconut candy! This easy to make healthy and delicious almond joy bar has just 1.4 net carbs (serving size 1 bar) and is ready in an hour.

No Bake Almond Joy Fat Bombs!

The best part about this recipe is that there is no real baking involved! All you have to do is allow the mixture and chocolate to set before digging in. Nothing needs to preheat, bake, or cool.

No bake anything always entices me to make it right away. These are a great option to turn to in times of needing to up your fat without sabotaging your protein or carbs levels, and wanting something small and sweet enough to satisfy your cravings.

This is even something fun to make with your kids as a healthy Halloween treat! We’ve given you a great fat bomb base where you can change up flavors or add extras, like chocolate chips for extra flavor and fun!

How to Make Keto Almond Joy Bars

Ready to make super delicious keto almond joy candy? You’re in luck because these keto almond joy bars are gonna knock your socks off!

Layers of shredded coconut and dark chocolate are the best way to create a flavorful fat bomb that actually tastes good.

Ingredients

To make these almond joy bars you will need unsweetened shredded coconut, unsweetened coconut milk (you can try coconut cream and water if preferred), coconut oil, liquid stevia, almond extract, and xanthan gum.

For their keto friendly chocolate outside you will need Unsweetened Bakers Chocolate, coconut oil, liquid stevia, and raw almonds. If you want to make mounds instead, skip the almond and instead use dark chocolate without stevia.

* Coconut cream is offered as a substitution for milk, but it is much thicker so it may change the texture. Try diluting it half cream and half water to avoid an overly thick mixture.

Making Low Carb Almond Joy Bars

To make these sugar free almond joy bars begin by heating the coconut milk in a sauce pan on low heat. Then add in the coconut oil and coconut flakes. Stir and let it cook down a bit to soften the texture.

Now add in the stevia drops and almond extract. Allow to cook on low for another five minutes and then add the xanthan gum.

Line a loaf pan with parchment paper and move the coconut mixture to the loaf pan. Continue pressing it down until it evenly covers the bottom of the pan. Place into the fridge to set for an hour.

Remove the parchment paper and cut the coconut bar into 12 pieces. Optionally if you want a homemade almond joy, now’s the time to press in your almond. Freeze again while you make the chocolate.

To make the chocolate coating melt chopped chocolate, coconut oil, and stevia in the microwave until just melted. Careful to not burn the chocolate, you can avoid this by stirring often.

Pull the fat bombs from the freezer and dip them into the chocolate coating. Store in the fridge and enjoy!

How to Store Keto Almond Joy Bars

These milk chocolate style sugar free chocolate almond joys store great for up to 2 weeks in the fridge. Make sure they are in an airtight container and the melted chocolate is set on them before stacking.

To freeze these “milk chocolate” beauties simply toss them into a zip top bag like you would with any type of keto cookies. Then freeze them for up to 3 months.

Whenever you want one, just set it on the counter to defrost for 5 minutes. Now go and enjoy the best keto fat bombs out there. Make sure you hide these homemade goodies or your family might just steal them!
