How to Make Coconut Bar Cookies

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. Place 1/2 cup (1 stick) of unsalted butter in a 9x9 inch baking pan. Place the pan in the preheated oven for 2-3 minutes, or until the butter is melted.
  3. Remove from oven and use a spatula or paper towel to spread the melted butter evenly across the bottom of the pan.
  4. Sprinkle 1 cup of graham cracker crumbs over the melted butter, pressing firmly to create a crust.
  5. Sprinkle 1/2 cup of semi-sweet chocolate chips evenly over the graham cracker crust.
  6. Pour 1 (14 ounce) can of sweetened condensed milk over the chocolate chips. Sprinkle evenly with 1/2 cup chopped nuts (pecans or walnuts recommended) and 1 cup of sweetened shredded coconut.
  7. Bake for 15-20 minutes, or until the coconut is lightly golden brown and the edges are set.
  8. Let the bars cool completely in the pan before cutting into squares.
