• ½ cup desiccated coconut
• ½ cup plain rice cakes, roughly crumbled
• 200 g dark chocolate, broken into pieces
• 3 scoops CanGro Collagen Powder
• 1 tsp coconut oil, optional
• 1 tsp maple syrup, optional

• Use milk chocolate or a reduced-sugar dark chocolate if preferred.

- Line a small baking tray or flat container with baking paper.
