Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups graham cracker crumbs
- 0.5 cups unsalted butter
- 1 cup shredded coconut (sweetened)
- 0.75 cup dried mango, finely chopped
- 1 cup crushed pineapple (drained)
- 1 can sweetened condensed milk
- 0.75 cup white chocolate chips
- 0.5 cup macadamia nuts, roughly chopped
- 0.25 teaspoons sea salt (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
Line an 8x8-inch square baking dish with parchment paper, leaving some overhang on the sides for easy removal.
In a microwave-safe bowl, melt the unsalted butter (approximately 30 seconds to 1 minute).
Combine the melted butter and graham cracker crumbs in a mixing bowl. Stir until the mixture resembles wet sand.
Press the graham cracker mixture firmly and evenly into the bottom of the prepared baking dish to form the crust.
Sprinkle the shredded coconut evenly over the crust, followed by a layer of chopped dried mango and drained crushed pineapple.
Pour the sweetened condensed milk evenly over the layers, spreading it gently with a spatula if needed.
Sprinkle the white chocolate chips and chopped macadamia nuts over the top, pressing them lightly into the condensed milk layer.
If desired, sprinkle the top with a pinch of sea salt for an extra pop of flavor.
Refrigerate the dish for at least 3 hours, or until the bars are fully set.
Once set, use the parchment paper overhang to lift the bars out of the dish. Slice into 12 squares or rectangles.
