How to Make Hershey's Chewy Peanut Bars

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 13x9 inch baking pan.
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour, 1 cup granulated sugar, ¾ cup unsweetened cocoa powder, ½ cup packed light brown sugar, 1 teaspoon baking powder, and ½ teaspoon salt.
  3. Cut in 1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter using a pastry blender or your fingers until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
  4. Beat in 2 large eggs until well combined.
  5. Press the mixture firmly into the prepared baking pan.
  6. Bake for 8-10 minutes, or until the edges are set.
  7. Remove from oven and evenly sprinkle 1 cup peanut butter chips over the top.
  8. Drizzle ½ cup sweetened condensed milk over the peanut butter chips.
  9. Sprinkle generously with ½ cup shredded coconut.
  10. Return to the oven and bake for an additional 20-25 minutes, or until the top is lightly browned.
  11. Let cool completely in the pan on a wire rack before cutting into 24 bars.
  12. Enjoy!
