COWBOY COCONUT BARS

Steps:

• Crust: Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Butter a 9-by-13-inch baking pan and line with parchment, leaving a 2-inch overhang on long sides. Whisk together flour, oats, and salt.
• Beat butter with brown sugar on medium speed in a mixer fitted with the paddle attachment until light and fluffy, about 2 minutes. Reduce speed to low and add flour mixture, 1 cup at a time, until dough comes together in large clumps.
• Firmly press dough into bottom of prepared pan. Pierce all over with a fork. Bake until golden brown, 18 to 20 minutes. Transfer to a wire rack; let cool slightly. Reduce oven temperature to 325 degrees.
• Filling: Combine butter, sugars, cream, and salt in a medium saucepan; bring to a boil over medium-high. Cook, stirring constantly, until mixture coats the back of a spoon, about 2 minutes. Remove from heat; stir in vanilla.
• Scatter chocolate chips and pecans on top of crust. Drizzle with caramel and sprinkle with coconut. Bake until coconut is golden and caramel is bubbling, about 20 minutes. Let cool completely in pan on a wire rack before cutting into bars. Bars can be stored up to 2 days in an airtight container at room temperature.

• Sprinkle cooled crust evenly with pecans and chocolate. Pour condensed milk over the top, spreading to cover completely (do not let it drip over the edges). Sprinkle with coconut.
• Bake until coconut is toasted, 10 to 15 minutes. Transfer to rack; cool completely. Trim edges, if desired, and cut into equal-size bars.

CHOCO-COCONUT BARS

Steps:

• Blend the condensed milk and the vanilla together in a bowl. Add the powdered sugar a little at a time, blending each time until smooth. Stir in the coconut. You should have a firm mixture. Pat the mixture into a greased 9 x 13 inch pan and chill until firm.
• Place the chocolate chips in a microwave-safe bowl and heat on high 1 minute at a time, stirring after each minute, until melted. Remove the pan from the refrigerator and cut the coconut mixture into 1 x 2 inch bars.
• Set each bar on a fork and dip into the chocolate, completely coating the bar. Let excess drip off, then set on waxed paper. Repeat for each bar. Bars will take several hours to air-dry; if you are in a hurry you can refrigerate the bars for about 30 minutes. Enjoy!
