How to Make Chocolate Coconut Bars

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. In a medium bowl, combine graham cracker crumbs, melted butter, and granulated sugar. Mix until well combined.
  3. Press the crumb mixture firmly into the bottom of a greased 13 x 9 x 2 inch baking pan.
  4. Bake for 10 minutes. Remove from oven and set aside to cool slightly.
  5. While the crust is baking, combine sweetened shredded coconut, evaporated milk, and chopped pecans in a medium bowl. Mix well.
  6. Evenly spread the coconut mixture over the partially cooled crust.
  7. Bake for an additional 15 minutes, or until the coconut topping is lightly golden brown.
  8. Remove from oven and let cool completely.
  9. In a small, heat-safe bowl, melt chopped semi-sweet chocolate and peanut butter together in the microwave in 30 second intervals, stirring until smooth. Alternatively, melt over a double boiler on low heat.
  10. Once the bars are completely cool, spread the melted chocolate peanut butter mixture evenly over the top.
  11. Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to allow the chocolate to set completely.
  12. Cut into squares and serve. Enjoy!
