    True that the coconut flavor is very mild if you aren't a big coconut fan. We thought this was ok...nice for a change although probably won't make again only because there are other recipes we enjoy more! - 11/12/11

    I found this recipe on FatFreeVegan.com and made it over the weekend. So glad someone saved it here on SparkPeople already! Great texture & flavor. One square is super satisfying. Not overly coconutty for those who may not like coconut too much. I used Oregon Chai concentrate instead of brewing tea. - 11/28/10
