Then, a sweet coconut filling made with eggs, butter and brown sugar is layered on top before everything is baked into pure coconut bliss.<\/p>\n<p>Ready in just over an hour, these buttery coconut delights are sweet, slightly chewy, and rich with terrific butter and coconut flavor.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"\">The Best Coconut for Baking<\/h2>\n<p>When shopping for dried coconut, you&#8217;ll see several different options at your local supermarket. Dried coconut typically comes either flaked or shredded, and sweetened or unsweetened. While the best option will vary between baking applications, in most cases (like this buttery coconut bar recipe), reaching for sweetened shredded coconut is usually a safe bet.<\/p>\n<p>Here&#8217;s more about when to use <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tasteofhome.com\/article\/is-flaked-or-shredded-coconut-best-for-your-recipe\/\" data-name=\"www.tasteofhome.com\/article\/is-flaked-or-shredded-coconut-best-for-your-recipe\/\" data-module=\"content engagement\" data-position=\"embedded links\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">flaked vs. shredded coconut<\/a> in your recipes.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"\">Ingredients for Coconut Bars<\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Crust<\/strong>: A simple shortbread-style crust made with butter, flour and brown sugar serves as the perfect base for these buttery beauties.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Dried coconut<\/strong>: Along with providing a deluxe coconut flavor, shredded, sweetened coconut gives these bars tons of sweetness, moisture and texture.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Sweetened condensed milk<\/strong>: In these bars, and many other <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tasteofhome.com\/collection\/sweetened-condensed-milk-recipes-to-satisfy-your-sweet-tooth\/\" data-name=\"www.tasteofhome.com\/collection\/sweetened-condensed-milk-recipes-to-satisfy-your-sweet-tooth\/\" data-module=\"content engagement\" data-position=\"embedded links\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">recipes with sweetened condensed milk<\/a>, sweetened condensed milk sweetens and provides a lovely milky creaminess to the filling without adding too much liquid or moisture.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Eggs<\/strong>: Beaten eggs add richness and structure to the bars, so they hold their height and shape once cooled and cut.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Brown sugar<\/strong>: A 1\/4 cup of brown sugar adds a touch of molasses flavor to the filling, which pairs well with the coconut and the crust. You can use either light or dark brown sugar for this recipe.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Flour<\/strong>: All-purpose flour is a key ingredient that stabilizes the filling by thickening it and giving it some structure.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2 class=\"\">Directions<\/h2>\n<h3 class=\"\">Step 1: Prepare the crust<\/h3>\n<p>Preheat the oven to 350\u00b0F.

Add 1 cup of melted butter and stir until evenly moist. Press the mixture into the bottom of the prepared pan and bake until light brown, about 12 to 15 minutes. Remove the crust from the oven and cool for 10 minutes on a wire rack. Then, reduce the oven to 325\u00b0.<\/p>\n<p><em>Editor&#8217;s Tip<\/em>: When making the crust, the mixture should still be rather crumbly and resemble wet sand (similar to when you make a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tasteofhome.com\/recipes\/homemade-graham-cracker-crust\/\" data-name=\"www.tasteofhome.com\/recipes\/homemade-graham-cracker-crust\/\" data-module=\"content engagement\" data-position=\"embedded links\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">homemade graham cracker crust<\/a>).<\/p>\n<h3 class=\"\">Step 2: Mix the coconut filling<\/h3>\n<p>In a large bowl, whisk the eggs, sweetened condensed milk, flour, brown sugar, butter, vanilla extract and salt until blended.

Quick and easy. Great coconut flavor and texture and not too sweet. I 'almost' overbaked the base, so next time I'll be a bit more diligent with paying attention to the timer.
