Ingredients

1 cup shredded sweetened coconut
1 cup salted gluten-free pretzels, crushed into small pieces
1/2 cup rice flour
1/2 cup coconut oil, melted
3 Tbsp. brown sugar
2 Tbsp. unsweetened cocoa
1 cup coconut milk
6 oz. vegan dark chocolate, finely chopped
Pomegranate seeds, for garnish (optional)

Directions

1. Step 1Preheat oven to 375°F. Grease 9" tart pan with removable bottom.
2. Step 2In large bowl, combine shredded coconut, pretzels, rice flour, coconut oil, sugar, and cocoa. Transfer to prepared tart pan. With hands, firmly press mixture into bottom and up side of pan in even layer; place on cookie sheet. Bake 10 minutes. Cool completely on wire rack.
3. Step 3In small saucepan, heat coconut milk on medium until just bubbling at edges, whisking occasionally. Place chocolate and pinch salt in medium heatproof bowl. Pour hot coconut milk over chocolate. Let stand 5 minutes. Gently whisk until smooth. Pour into tart shell. Refrigerate, uncovered, 2 hours or until set. To serve, top with pomegranate seeds, if desired. Can be made up to 2 days ahead. Once set, cover with plastic and keep refrigerated.

Editor's note: If chocolate is more than 70% cacao, add 2 Tbsp. brown sugar with chocolate and salt in step 3.
