How to Make Coconut Caramel Bars
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 9x13 inch baking pan, or line it with parchment paper for easy removal.
- In a medium saucepan, combine the sweetened condensed milk, brown sugar, butter, and salt. Bring to a simmer over medium heat, stirring constantly until the butter is melted and the mixture is smooth.
- Reduce heat to low and simmer for 5-7 minutes, stirring frequently, until the caramel thickens slightly. Remove from heat and stir in the vanilla extract.
- Spread the caramel evenly in the prepared baking pan.
- In a separate bowl, combine the shredded coconut, flour, and melted butter. Mix well until evenly moistened.
- Sprinkle the coconut mixture evenly over the caramel layer.
- Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until the coconut topping is lightly golden brown and the caramel is bubbly.
- Let the bars cool completely in the pan before drizzling with melted chocolate.
- Once the chocolate is set, cut into bars and serve. Enjoy!
