Introduce the ingredients: figs, dark chocolate, sea salt, hemp seeds, and shredded coconut.

Place the dark chocolate bar into a small saucepan.

Put the saucepan on the stove and set the heat to low to melt the chocolate, stirring occasionally to prevent burning.

Cut the stems off the figs and slice half of them in half, keeping the other half whole.

Dip half of a fig into the melted dark chocolate to cover half of it, then place it down.

Sprinkle sea salt, hemp seeds, and shredded coconut on top of the chocolate-covered half fig.

Dip the whole figs into the melted dark chocolate, holding onto the stem for easy dipping.

Sprinkle sea salt, hemp seeds, and shredded coconut on the whole figs after dipping.

Set the finished figs down and continue with the rest of the figs.

Place the figs in the fridge for about 10 to 15 minutes to allow the chocolate to cool and harden.
