How to Make Coconut Chocolate Bars
- Preheat oven to 325°F (160°C). Grease an 8x8 inch baking pan.
- In a medium bowl, whisk together 2 large eggs and ¾ cup granulated sugar until light and fluffy.
- Stir in ½ cup (1 stick) melted unsalted butter and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour, 1 teaspoon baking powder, and ¼ teaspoon salt.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined.
- Divide the batter in half. Set aside one half.
- To one half of the batter, add ½ cup unsweetened cocoa powder and 1 tablespoon melted unsalted butter. Mix until well combined.
- To the other half of the batter, add 1 cup shredded sweetened coconut.
- Pour the chocolate batter into the prepared baking pan.
- Spread the coconut batter evenly over the chocolate batter.
- Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with moist crumbs.
- Let cool completely in the pan before proceeding.
- While the bars are cooling, prepare the topping: Melt 6 ounces of semi-sweet chocolate chips in a microwave-safe bowl in 30-second intervals, stirring until smooth. Stir in 1 tablespoon of melted unsalted butter.
- Spread the melted chocolate topping evenly over the cooled bars.
- Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to allow the topping to set completely.
- Cut into small squares. Enjoy!
