Recipe:

Divide the coconut batter into 12 muffin liners, pressing and smoothing the tops of each.
Set in the freezer to get really firm, 1-2 hrs.
Gently melt Zazubean Lunatic Bars over a double broiler or in the microwave.
Line a baking tray or plate with parchment paper.
Gently drop each frozen coconut cup into the melted chocolate, coating each side.
Set each coconut cup on the parchment lined sheet.
Once all the coconut cups are covered in chocolate, place in the fridge to finish firming the chocolate.
Keep Coconut Mint Patties in the fridge until ready to eat.
