Coconut is one of those flavors that people tend to either enjoy or dislike. I, for one, can’t get enough of it. If you feel the same way, then today’s recipe is for you! These Coconut Butter Bars are the perfect dessert. With a buttery crust, a creamy filling, and plenty of coconut flakes, there’s a lot to like about this delicious delicacy. And did I mention how easy these are to make? Let’s see how they’re made!
The recipe begins by preparing a simple crust. Combine the flour, brown sugar, salt, and melted butter until it forms a dough. Transfer the dough to a lightly greased 9×13-inch baking dish and press it into an equal layer to produce a crust. You will then bake the crust for approximately 15 minutes. While the crust bakes, you may begin making the filling!
Stir together the eight ingredients, then spread them over the cooked crust and top with the remaining coconut flakes. Return to the oven for around 25 minutes, and your bars are ready to go.
These bars are an instant potluck hit, but there’s never a bad time to make a batch, especially given how simple they are. Add them to your holiday baking list, serve as an Easter treat, or simply satisfy your sweet taste any day of the week.
