Place mixture into brownie pan and level using a spatula.
Freeze for 30 minutes to 1 hour, then slice into equal-sized bars.
Chocolate Topping
Chop dark chocolate and place in a medium-sized microwave-safe bowl. Add coconut oil and warm at 30 second increments, stirring well at each pause until chocolate is melted and smooth.
Dip coconut bars into chocolate, top with more desiccated coconut (optional) and place on a wire rack until chocolate has dried and solidified. Store at room temperature or refrigerator until serving.
