CHOCOLATE-COCONUT BARS



Chocolate-Coconut Bars image

Inspired by a much-loved chocolate-coconut candy bar, these are the perfect spur-of-the-moment treats for the event that almost slipped your mind: Premade sugar cookie dough does half the work for you!

Provided by Food Network Kitchen

Categories     dessert

Yield sixteen 2-inch squares

Number Of Ingredients 13

Butter, for greasing pan
Topping:
1/3 cup coconut cream
1 large egg white
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 1/2 cups sweetened shredded coconut
2 teaspoons all-purpose flour
One 4-ounce bar bittersweet or semisweet chocolate, coarsely chopped
Base:
1/4 cup all-purpose flour, plus more for rolling dough
1/3 cup natural unsweetened cocoa powder (not Dutch process)
1/4 teaspoon fine sea salt
One 1-pound package prepared refrigerated sugar cookie dough

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Cut a piece of foil 9- by 23-inches. Butter the corners and sides of a 9- by 9-inch baking pan. Line the pan with the foil, leaving an overhang on two sides. Fold the overhanging foil to make them doubly thick. (This will make it easier to lift the bar out of the pan.)
  • For the topping: Whisk the coconut cream with the egg white and vanilla in a medium bowl. Toss the shredded coconut with the flour in another medium bowl. Stir the shredded coconut mixture into the coconut cream mixture. Set aside.
  • For the base: Whisk the flour with the cocoa powder and salt in a small bowl. Put the cookie dough on a clean work surface and dump the flour mixture on top. Knead the flour mixture and dough together until it is dark and homogenous. Sprinkle a little extra flour on the work surface, and use a rolling pin to gently press and roll the dough into a 7- or 8-inch square; don't worry if it cracks a bit. Put the dough in the prepared pan, using your fingers to press it evenly into the sides and corners.
  • Scatter the coconut topping evenly over the base, making sure you cover the edges well and being sure not to press down so that the coconut mixture lies on top of the dough. Scatter the chocolate on top and press it lightly into the coconut. Bake until the coconut is a toasted golden brown, the topping seems dry and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean, about 30 minutes. Cool completely on a rack before gently lifting out of the pan by the overhanging foil, about 20 minutes. Slice into 16 square bars.

Provided by Martha Stewart

Categories     Food & Cooking     Dessert & Treats Recipes     Cookie Recipes

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.
  • Bake until coconut is toasted, 10 to 15 minutes. Transfer to rack; cool completely. Trim edges, if desired, and cut into equal-size bars.

Tips:

  • Use fresh ingredients. This will make a big difference in the flavor of your bars.
  • Be sure to toast your walnuts. This will bring out their flavor and make them more crunchy.
  • Don't overcook the bars. They should be set, but still slightly gooey in the center.
  • Let the bars cool completely before cutting them. This will help them hold their shape.
  • Store the bars in an airtight container in the refrigerator. They will keep for up to 2 weeks.

Conclusion:

These Coconut Chocolate Walnut Bars are a delicious and easy-to-make treat that are perfect for any occasion. With their chewy oat crust, creamy coconut filling, and rich chocolate topping, they're sure to be a hit with everyone who tries them.
