YUMMIEST CHEWY COCONUT CRANBERRY BARS



Yummiest Chewy Coconut Cranberry Bars image

The aroma of coconut, almond extract, sugar and egg baking in the oven is enough to make my salivary glands happy. The added tanginess of the dried cranberries and slight crunchiness of the almond nibs are a bonus on top of all that yummy goodness. This recipe is my own concoction. If you have a very sweet tooth, increase the sugar content by 2 tablespoons for the base.

Tips:

  • Use fresh cranberries. Fresh cranberries are more flavorful and have a better texture than frozen cranberries. If you only have frozen cranberries, thaw them completely before using.
  • Don't overcook the cranberries. Cranberries should be cooked until they are just softened, but still hold their shape. If you overcook them, they will become mushy.
  • Use a good quality coconut milk. The coconut milk is a key ingredient in this recipe, so it's important to use a good quality brand. Look for coconut milk that is unsweetened and has a high fat content.
  • Add the chocolate chips at the end. This will help prevent them from melting and becoming too soft.
  • Let the bars cool completely before cutting them. This will help them hold their shape.

Conclusion:

Coconut Cranberry Yummies are a delicious and easy-to-make treat that is perfect for any occasion. They are made with a combination of fresh cranberries, coconut milk, and chocolate chips, and they are sure to be a hit with everyone who tries them. Whether you are looking for a sweet snack or a healthy dessert, Coconut Cranberry Yummies are a great option. They are also a good source of fiber and antioxidants, making them a healthy choice for snacking.
