Ingredients

1 medium package of Dad's Coconut Cookies, crushed finely.

1/2 cup melted butter

2 cups icing sugar

1/2 cup butter

1/2 cup chocolate chips

1/2 tsp. vanilla extract

1/2 cup chopped nuts

1 egg, beaten

Directions

Crust:

Mix cookie crumbs (reserving 1 cup) with the melted butter and press into an 8x8 baking pan.

Bake at 400F for 5 minutes.

Remove from oven and cool.

Topping:

In a saucepan over medium-low heat, melt together the 1/2 cup of butter with the chocolate chips, vanilla and nuts.

Add in the icing sugar and beaten egg and stir until very smooth, about one minute.

Spread this mixture atop the cooled crust.

Sprinkle the reserved crumbs on top.

Let sit or refrigerate before cutting into squares.

You can leave the nuts out of this recipe very successfully. In fact, its much creamier if you do. Freezes very well.

Oh wow - these sound really great, Auntybea. I'm trying to think if Kraft (or anyone) has a crunchy cookie equivalent to Dad's Cookies in the U.S. I really want to try this and I'm thinking I could sub in maybe crushed vanilla wafers, coconut and coconut flavoring? (I love coconut.) I'm saving these to try...thank you!

Oh, I didn't know that Dad's weren't in the US! Thanks for mentioning it! The taste is alot like graham wafers mixed with brown sugar -- or you could try a generic coconut or oatmeal cookie. To be honest, I was surprised when I looked at the recipe for the first time in years (I make them by memory now) because it says coconut cookies but I'm certain I always use oatmeal! Even when my mom first made them I never tasted coconut at all, so I don't think there is much coconut flavour in Dad's coconut cookies. But I really think a good substitution would be the graham wafers with a cup of brown sugar mixed in. But if you love coconut, your vanilla wafer idea would certainly work well too and probably be delicious!
