I don't remember where I got this recipe after I ate coconut bars. Sorry, I am so addicted to this blended flavors but I haven't gain weight. I guess I did worked so hard during day before touching the morsels that doctors told me not to eat.
Chocolate Coconut Bars
6 (1-ounce) squares semisweet chocolate, chopped
1/2 cup granulated sugar
3 tablespoons butter
3 tablespoons water
2 large eggs
3/4 cup all-purpose flour
1 1/4 cups sweetened flake coconut
1/2 cup chopped pecans
1/3 cup semisweet chocolate chips
2/3 cup sweetened condensed milk
Preheat oven to 325°F (160°C). Line the bottom of an 8-inch baking pan with parchment paper.
In a heavy saucepan combine semisweet chocolate, sugar, butter and water. Cook over low heat, stirring constantly, until melted and smooth. Transfer to a large mixing bowl; cool slightly. Whisk in eggs then stir in flour until smooth. Pour batter into pan, smoothing the top with a spatula. Bake for 15 minutes.
In a medium bowl combine coconut, pecans and chocolate chips. Pour in condensed milk and stir well. Spoon over partially baked chocolate, spreading in an even layer out to edges. Return to oven and bake until set, about 20 minutes. Cool completely in pan on wire rack. Cut into small squares and transfer with spatula to serving tray or tin.
Makes 24 bars.
