Coconut Mounds Bars Recipe

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 350º.

Step 2

Mix crumbs, powdered sugar, and butter, and pat into an 8 x 8 pan (may line with non-stick foil for easy removal). Bake for 10 minutes.

Step 3

Pour sweet and condensed milk into a microwave-safe bowl, and heat till quite warm to the touch. Stir in coconut.

Step 4

Spread evenly over the crust. Bake for 15-20 minutes or until lightly browned. Allow the bars to cool slightly before icing.

Step 5

Melt chocolate and cream in the microwave, stopping and stirring at 30-second increments, until smooth.

Step 6

Give the mixture a good whisk and pour over the coconut layer and spread to cover.

Step 7

Chill slightly before cutting for a cleaner cut. If chocolate is too hard, it will crack unless you first score it with a hot, dry knife.
