Chocolate Coconut Bars: Easy Fudgy Recipe.

These easy, fudgy Chocolate Coconut Bars combine shredded coconut, graham cracker crumbs, and rich cocoa for a decadent treat that is simple to bake and perfect for any occasion.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup unsweetened shredded coconut
  • 1 cup graham cracker crumbs
  • 1/2 cup sweetened condensed milk
  • 1/2 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
  • 1/4 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 1/4 cup melted butter
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease an 8x8-inch baking dish or line it with parchment paper for easy removal.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, combine the shredded coconut, graham cracker crumbs, sweetened condensed milk, melted butter, vanilla extract, cocoa powder, and salt. Stir until well combined and sticky.
  3. Spread the mixture evenly into the prepared baking dish, pressing down firmly with a spatula to ensure it is compact.
  4. Sprinkle the semi-sweet chocolate chips evenly over the top. Add extra coconut flakes if desired.
  5. Bake for 25 to 30 minutes, or until the edges are slightly golden and the center is set.
  6. Remove from the oven and let cool in the pan for 10 minutes. Lift out using the parchment paper and let cool completely on a wire rack.
  7. Once cooled, cut into squares or bars.

Notes

  • For cleaner cuts, ensure the bars are completely cooled before slicing.
  • Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days or refrigerate for up to a week.
  • Pressing the mixture firmly into the pan is key to preventing the bars from crumbling.
