There are so many ways to create a delicious shortbread dessert, but one of my favorites is Coconut Pecan Shortbread Bars. These bars have a flaky buttery shortbread crust with a raspberry filling, topped with a tasty coconut topping. These bars bring together all the best flavors into one luscious dessert.
