Stir the mixture until everything is well combined.

Transfer the mixture into a loaf pan lined with parchment paper.

Fold the parchment over the top and press the mixture down firmly to avoid sticky hands.

Place the pan in the fridge for a few minutes.

In a microwave-safe bowl, combine chocolate chips and coconut oil.

Heat the chocolate and coconut oil in 30-second intervals until melted.

Pour the melted chocolate over the bars and spread it evenly using the back of a spoon.

Place the bars back in the fridge to harden for about 30 minutes.

Remove the bars from the fridge and cut them into eight slices.

Store the bars in the fridge for up to one week and enjoy cold or at room temperature.
