Description
Quick and delicious 3-Ingredient Coconut Bars that are easy to make and perfect for a sweet treat.
Ingredients
Scale
- 2 cups sweetened shredded coconut
- 1 cup sweetened condensed milk
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line an 8×8-inch baking dish with parchment paper, leaving some overhang for easy removal.
- In a mixing bowl, combine the sweetened shredded coconut, sweetened condensed milk, and vanilla extract. Stir until the coconut is fully coated.
- Pour the mixture into the prepared baking dish and press it down firmly with a spatula or your hands to create an even layer.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown.
- Remove from the oven and let it cool in the pan for about 10 minutes. Then, lift the bars out using the parchment paper and allow them to cool completely on a wire rack before cutting into squares.
Notes
- For a chocolate twist, drizzle melted dark chocolate over the cooled bars before cutting them into squares.
- Add a pinch of sea salt to the mixture for a sweet and salty flavor contrast.
