In a large bowl, mash the bananas until mostly smooth. Add the shredded coconut and use a fork to mix until the coconut is fully coated and the mixture holds together.

Bake for 18 to 22 minutes, until the edges are golden brown and the top looks set.

Meanwhile, place the chocolate in a small bowl and microwave in 20-second bursts, stirring each time, until smooth and runny.

Creator's notes
A bar version of the creator's viral banana coconut cookies. The caption lists a 2-ounce chocolate bar in the ingredients but refers to chocolate chips in the melting step — either works.
