"Strawberries and coconut just work together. Like the tropical little friends they are. These are a special treat, and I used coconut oil as sparingly as I could for anyone who tries to minimize their intake of oil like me! The oil really helps to hold everything together and is hard to do without in frozen dessert bars like these, unless you don’t care if they melt all over and don’t stay together. I don’t like to use oil – at all – ever! At least not anymore so it wasn’t easy for me to dig out my coconut oil… but since I rarely use it and it's for a special treat, it's alright. Plus, they taste heavenly and they’re pink - which makes everything better...."
