- Roughly chop nuts and place in fry pan. Dry roast nuts over medium heat for 1-2 minutes or until nuts begin to brown. Stir nuts frequently to prevent burning. Set aside to cool.

- Fold nuts through chocolate mixture.
- Spoon into silicone moulds or patty cases.
- Pop in the fridge or freezer to start to set.
- To make the topping, divide the coconut into separate bowls and add a couple of drops of food colouring to each. Mix until evenly coloured.

- Pop back in the fridge or freezer to finish setting.
