Cocoa Dream Bars
Ingredients
  • 1/2 cup butter
  • 1/2 cup brown sugar
  • 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 1/2 cups brown sugar
  • 3 eggs, beaten
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/4 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1/4 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1 1/2 cups flaked coconut
  • 1 cup chopped walnuts
Instructions
1
Firstly, set the oven to a high heat of 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
2
Next, use an electric mixer to cream together butter and 1/2 cup brown sugar in a medium-sized bowl until it reaches a smooth consistency. Then, incorporate 1 1/2 cups of flour into the mixture and press it firmly into the bottom of a 9x13-inch baking pan.
3
Then, bake the crust in the preheated oven for 15 minutes, or until it turns golden brown.
4
In a separate bowl, whisk together the remaining 1/2 cup brown sugar and eggs until well combined. Add a hint of vanilla to the mixture and whisk it in.
5
In another bowl, mix together the remaining 1/4 cup of flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, and salt until well combined. Add this mixture to the egg mixture and stir until smooth.
6
Fold in 1/2 cup of coconut and walnuts into the mixture, then pour it into the crust.
7
Finally, bake the entire dish in the preheated oven for 25 to 30 minutes, or until it is firm and set. Remove from the oven, let cool, then cut into squares.
