So I never got around to those rice flour cookies (which I was dreading) and sweet potato chips (which I was anxious to make and taste).
However, I have managed to make this yummy health treat:

| Coconut Snacks |
Of course...no measurements....because the only thing I measure in stove top cooking is rice. And that is slowly joining the no measuring squad.
I made this after I attempted to open a coconut which I never did before. As always the point of me being in the kitchen in to have healthy yummy fun. Coconut is god for the immune system and also gives energy, cinnamon and honey are antibacterial, cacao is like cocoa.
I did the research for them, so I know they are good. However, you should do your own. I think it will...,may...might boost your desire to eat healthy if you do not.
Thinly sliced coconut
Shredded/Grated coconut
Cacao
Cinnamon
Coconut oil
Coconut water
Honey
In a pot heat a small amount of water. Stir the cacao into the water. Toss the shredded coconut in the pot and stir. Add the honey (to taste) and cinnamon. Keep stirring. When it thickens to the point that the mixture resembles a clump spoon the mixture a baking sheet. An inch and a half is a suitable distance. Cover with a foil or your choice material. After twenty minutes you can remove from fridge and enjoy.
When you're not consuming them. Keep them in the fridge so that they don't melt...though they are still yummy and healthy.
You may note that how I add ingredients is just crazy....but I do it on a whim.
You may also have noticed that all the ingredients have not be used. The remainder of the ingrdients go here:
After all of the mixture from the pot without cleaning the pot toss the sliced coconuts into the pot. Stir them so that they can be coated with the left over mixture. Add the coconut oil and water, and some honey as well but not too much. Keep stirring until the liquids have dried. Stir some more so that the coconut does not get stuck to the pan.
This is what I did. They both tasted very good. But looking back at it I am now wondering why infuse freshly sliced coconut with coconut oil and coconut water. Why not do it to some fruit? (Well it was all I had.)
As I was looking for a recipe similar to the first recipe with measurements I found this recipe, and thought it suitable. There's not heat required. This makes it better. However, you need a blender.
