Tips:
- For a richer flavor, use full-fat coconut milk instead of light coconut milk.
- If you don't have sweetened condensed milk, you can make your own by simmering 1 cup of granulated sugar and 1/4 cup of water in a saucepan until the sugar dissolves. Then, stir in 1 cup of evaporated milk and bring to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer for 15 minutes, or until the mixture has thickened.
- To make sure the bars are set, chill them in the refrigerator for at least 3 hours before serving.
- If you want to add a little extra flavor, try sprinkling some toasted coconut on top of the bars before serving.
