Cómo preparar Chewy Coconut Cherry Bars

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. In a large bowl, combine 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour, 1 teaspoon baking soda, 1 cup rolled oats, and ¾ cup packed light brown sugar.
  3. Cut in ½ cup shortening using a pastry blender or your fingers until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
  4. Press the crumb mixture into the bottom of a greased 9x13 inch baking pan. Bake for 10 minutes.
  5. In a separate bowl, beat 2 large eggs, ¾ cup packed light brown sugar, and 1 teaspoon almond extract until light and fluffy.
  6. In a small bowl, whisk together ½ cup all-purpose flour, ½ teaspoon baking powder, and ¼ teaspoon salt.
  7. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined.
  8. Stir in 1 cup sweetened shredded coconut, 1 cup maraschino cherries, drained, and ½ cup chopped pecans.
  9. Spread the coconut-cherry mixture evenly over the baked crust.
  10. Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until the topping is lightly golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with moist crumbs.
  11. Let cool completely in the pan before frosting.
  12. For the icing: Beat together ½ cup (1 stick) unsalted butter, softened, 2 cups powdered sugar, and 2-4 tablespoons milk until smooth and creamy. Add more milk, 1 tablespoon at a time, if needed to reach desired consistency.
  13. Spread the icing evenly over the cooled bars.
  14. Cut into squares and enjoy!
