Coconut Bars Recipe
This was a christmas treat my mom would make for us - growing up in canada the winters always seemed so long and this sweet treat was so much like comfort food

Ingredients
  • 1/2 cup milk
  • 1/2 cup butter
  • 1 cup brown sugar
  • 2 cups oatmeal
  • 1 cup coconut
  • 1 tsp vanilla
  • 1 tsp salt

Directions
  1. Mix first 3 ingredients and bring to a boil until it bubbles, then remove from heat. Mix in the remaining ingredients.
  2. Press into an 8"x8" pan and cool until firm. Cut into bars approx. 1"x1" pieces.
  3. Heat 8 oz. of chocolate chips. Dip bars into chocolate and cool. The original recipe as written by my mother included 1/2 bar of paraffin wax with the chocolate chips - I make it without the paraffin - I think the only change is the firmness of the chocolate.
