Magic Coconut Bars
Description
This recipe begins by crushing graham crackers and combining them with flour, salt, brown sugar, baking powder, and melted unsalted butter to form a soft, crumbly dough. This mixture is pressed into a thin layer on a large lined baking sheet and baked for 10 minutes at 350°F to create a crisp crust. Next, a topping is made by mixing coconut flakes, semi-sweet chocolate chips, and chopped walnuts, then drizzling condensed milk over and stirring to combine. This topping is spread over the pre-baked crust and baked for an additional 20 minutes. Once removed from the oven, the bars are cooled to room temperature to set before being cut. The end result is a layered bar featuring a crunchy base and a moist, chewy, sweet topping with chocolate and nut textures.
