Description

Delicious dessert bars combining cherries, coconut, and chocolate with a chewy texture.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup graham cracker crumbs
  • 1/2 cup unsweetened shredded coconut
  • 1/2 cup chopped pecans or walnuts
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted
  • 1 cup sweetened condensed milk
  • 1 cup cherry pie filling
  • 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9×9 inch baking dish.
  2. In a bowl, combine the graham cracker crumbs, shredded coconut, and chopped nuts. Stir in the melted butter until fully combined. Press this mixture firmly into the bottom of the baking dish.
  3. Pour the sweetened condensed milk evenly over the crust, then spoon the cherry pie filling over the condensed milk, and sprinkle the chocolate chips on top. Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until golden brown.
  4. Allow the bars to cool completely. Cut into squares and enjoy!

Notes

For extra flavor, toast the nuts before mixing. Try variations with different fruits or nut butters.
