Introduction

Coconut Butter Bars are a delightful treat that combines the tropical flavor of coconut
with the richness of butter and sweetened condensed milk. With a buttery crust and a chewy
coconut filling, these bars are the perfect blend of crispy, soft, and creamy textures.
They’re easy to make and absolutely irresistible for coconut lovers!

Ingredients

For the crust:

• 1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter, melted
• 2 cups graham cracker crumbs (or digestive biscuits, crushed)
• 1/2 cup granulated sugar
• 1/4 teaspoon salt

For the filling:

• 1 can (14 oz) sweetened condensed milk
• 2 cups sweetened shredded coconut
• 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
• 1/2 cup white chocolate chips (optional for extra creaminess)

For topping (optional):

• 1/2 cup toasted coconut flakes
• Drizzle of melted white or dark chocolate

Instructions

1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a 9×13-inch baking pan with parchment paper and lightly grease it.
2. In a mixing bowl, combine melted butter, graham cracker crumbs, sugar, and salt. Mix well and press into the pan to form a crust.
3. Bake crust for 10 minutes until slightly golden. Remove and let cool slightly.
4. In another bowl, mix sweetened condensed milk, shredded coconut, vanilla extract, and white chocolate chips (if using).
5. Spread the coconut mixture evenly over the baked crust and smooth the top.
6. Bake again for 20–25 minutes or until edges are golden and the top is set.
7. Cool completely in the pan, then chill for 30 minutes before slicing.
