Remove the top parchment paper. With a pizza cutter slice to make squares out of the dough. Repeat this process on another baking sheet with the other half of the dough.
Slide the parchment paper with the cereal onto a baking sheet.
Bake for 15 minutes, remove the pan from the over and turn the cereal over to crisp up the other side, separating each piece. Cook for 10 more minutes and repeat the process 5 minutes at a time until the cereal is cook through and crunchy. Remove cereal from the oven and allow cooling. Place cereal in a large bowl.
Mix together the 2 TB Powdered Monk Fruit Sweetener and 3 TB Cocoa Powder in a small bowl and pour over the cereal. Toss until the cereal is completely covered; store in an airtight container.
You may have to add a bit more water to the dough if it is too dry, because some coconut flours absorb more than others. Add a tablespoon at a time to get a soft stiff dough consistency.
