Good for the heart :)



I rustled up a big box of chocolate coconut flapjacks on Thursday - I used my normal syrupy flapjack recipe and just added dessicated coconut,cocoa powder and a handful of chocolate chips to the mixture.  I added a little extra butter, syrup and sugar to compensate for the extra ingredients.

This recipe was a bit of an experiment after readying about the Green and Blacks choccy coconut flapjacks online....

They were a HUGE success and everyone loved them :)  Needless to say, they are all gone now!

We tell ourselves that they are good for the heart because of all the oatmeal in them!!  :)  Kind of like telling yourself carrot cake is as good for you as it's a vegetable ;)  lol!

I will definitely be making these again!!  (Sorry for the bad iphone snapshot lol)!!

(ps English style flapjacks are a little like an oaty cookie - or granola bar - oats baked in a syrupy mixture - this is VERY different to American flapjacks (ie pancakes).
