Maple Coconut Bars

   

















This is not my original recipe; but as close as I could find on the internet. These will melt in your mouth and if you love coconut and maple syrup; well...

Ingredients:


  • 1 1/4 cup flour
  • 1/4 cup sugar
  • 1/2 cup butter, softened
  • 3 1/2 ounces shredded coconut
  • 2/3 cup maple syrup
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
Directions:
Preheat oven to 375-degrees.
Place sugar and butter in a mixing bowl and blend until light and fluffy. Add the flour and incorporate into the sugar/butter mixture. Press into an 8x8-inch baking pan. Bake for 15-20 minutes. Remove from oven. Keep oven at 375-degrees.

Combine syrup, coconut and salt in a small saucepan. Cook over medium-low heat until most of the coconut has absorbed the maple syrup; stirring often. About 8-10 minutes.

Spread the coconut mixture evenly over the warm shortbread and return to the oven for an additional 10 minutes. 

Cut in bars while still warm.
