Time 1h

Yield Makes 20

Number Of Ingredients 7

3 cups finely ground cookies (12 ounces), such as graham crackers or chocolate wafers, or a combination
1/4 cup sugar
3/4 cup (1 1/2 sticks) unsalted butter, melted
1 cup pecan pieces
1 cup semisweet chocolate chips or chunks
1 can (14 ounces) sweetened condensed milk
1 1/2 cups sweetened shredded coconut

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Lightly splash a 15-by-10-inch rimmed baking sheet evenly with water, then line with parchment paper.
  • In a large bowl, stir together cookie crumbs, sugar, and butter until combined. Evenly press onto bottom and up sides of prepared baking sheet. Bake, rotating halfway through, until firm, about 10 minutes. Transfer to a wire rack; cool, about 20 minutes.
  • Sprinkle cooled crust evenly with pecans and chocolate. Pour condensed milk over the top, spreading to cover completely (do not let it drip over the edges). Sprinkle with coconut.

CHOCOLATE COCONUT BARS

With a middle layer of coconut, these sweet chocolaty treats taste similar to a Mounds candy bar! If time is short, don't wait for the bars to cool-just lay on several thin milk chocolate bars right after you take the pan from the oven and spread them as they melt.

Yield 18

Number Of Ingredients 5

5 ounces sweetened condensed milk
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
2 cups confectioners' sugar
14 ounces flaked coconut
4 cups semisweet chocolate chips

Steps:

  • Blend the condensed milk and the vanilla together in a bowl. Add the powdered sugar a little at a time, blending each time until smooth. Stir in the coconut. You should have a firm mixture. Pat the mixture into a greased 9 x 13 inch pan and chill until firm.
  • Place the chocolate chips in a microwave-safe bowl and heat on high 1 minute at a time, stirring after each minute, until melted. Remove the pan from the refrigerator and cut the coconut mixture into 1 x 2 inch bars.
  • Set each bar on a fork and dip into the chocolate, completely coating the bar. Let excess drip off, then set on waxed paper. Repeat for each bar. Bars will take several hours to air-dry; if you are in a hurry you can refrigerate the bars for about 30 minutes. Enjoy!

COCONUT CHOCOLATE BARS



Coconut Chocolate Bars image

GREAT COMBINATON! My friends nicknamed these cookies "black-white" bars. These bars help with the chocolate and coconut cravings at the same time! They sell well at Bake Sales! Careful not to overbake. They store well in an air-tight container and flavor enhances with age.

Tips:

  • Use high-quality ingredients: This will make a big difference in the taste of your cookies. Look for good-quality chocolate chips and coconut flakes.
  • Be careful not to overmix the dough: Overmixing can make the cookies tough. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Chill the dough before baking: This will help the cookies hold their shape and prevent them from spreading too much.
  • Bake the cookies until they are just set: Overbaking will make them dry and crumbly. The edges should be golden brown and the centers should be slightly soft.
  • Let the cookies cool completely before serving: This will allow them to firm up and develop their full flavor.

Conclusion:

These choco-coconut bar cookies are a delicious and easy-to-make treat. They're perfect for any occasion, from a casual get-together to a holiday party. With their rich chocolate flavor and chewy coconut texture, these cookies are sure to be a hit with everyone who tries them.
