Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 395 grams sweetened condensed milk
- 250 grams unsweetened shredded coconut
- 100 grams all-purpose flour
- 100 grams granulated sugar
- 100 grams butter
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 0.25 teaspoons salt
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F) and line a 20cm x 20cm (8-inch x 8-inch) baking tin with parchment paper.
Melt the butter in a small saucepan or microwave until just liquid. Set aside to cool slightly.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the shredded coconut, all-purpose flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt. Mix well to combine.
Add the melted butter, sweetened condensed milk, and vanilla extract to the dry ingredients, and stir until fully mixed and a sticky dough forms.
Transfer the mixture into the prepared baking tin, and press it down evenly with the back of a spoon or your hands to create a compact layer.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and the edges are slightly crisp.
Remove from the oven and allow the slice to cool completely in the tin before lifting it out using the parchment paper.
Cut the slice into 12 equal squares or rectangles. Serve and enjoy!
Store any leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days.
