Ingredients
Scale
- 2 teaspoons coconut rum extract
- 1 cup sweetened condensed milk
- 1/2 cup melted butter
- 2 cups shredded coconut
- 1 1/2 cups powdered sugar
- Vanilla extract
Instructions
- Prepare Your Pan: Start by greasing an 8×8 inch baking dish or lining it with parchment paper. This will make it easy to remove the squares later.
- Mix Wet Ingredients: In a medium bowl, combine 1 cup of sweetened condensed milk, 1/2 cup of melted butter, and 2 teaspoons of coconut rum extract (or your non-alcoholic alternative). Whisk until smooth.
- Add Dry Ingredients: Gradually stir in 2 cups of shredded coconut and 1 1/2 cups of powdered sugar. Mix until everything is well combined and the mixture becomes a thick batter.
- Spread in Pan: Pour the mixture into the prepared baking dish, spreading it evenly with a spatula. Press it down gently to compact the mixture.
- Chill: Cover the dish with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or until the mixture is firm enough to cut into squares.
- Cut into Squares: Once chilled, lift the mixture out of the pan using the parchment paper, if used. Cut into small squares or bars, depending on your preference.
- Dust with Coconut: For an extra touch, you can roll the squares in additional shredded coconut to coat them before serving.
