In a microwave-safe bowl, melt the chocolate chips with the coconut oil in 20-second intervals, stirring until smooth.
Let the chocolate cool for 2–3 minutes, then whisk in the softened Kite Hill cream cheese until completely smooth and glossy.

Freeze for 1–2 hours, or until the topping is firm.
Let the bars sit at room temperature for 5–10 minutes before slicing into 9 bars with a warm knife.
