Coconut Bark image

Two ingredients, super-simple, pretty good stuff. From the Food Network show Mexican Made Easy. Like Hello Dollies without the nuts, chocolate chips, or graham cracker crust. I had a craving for coconut and this helped meet the craving head on!

Yield 16 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 2

5 1/2 cups coconut
14 ounces sweetened condensed milk

Steps:

  • Spray an 8x8 inch baking dish with nonstick cooking spray.
  • Mix coconut and evaporated milk together in a bowl.
  • Pour into baking dish and then smooth out (make sure it is level so that it cooks evenly).
  • Bake at 350 for 20 minutes or until browned.
  • Cool completely and then cut into bars.
  • This is how the recipe/show said to do it, mostly. Some people have found that a package of coconut does not yield 5 1/2 cups, but the recipe works with less coconut. I found that I cooked mine for 25 minutes, cooled it, then ended up putting it back in the oven for another 10 minutes. Next time I am going to put it in a 9x13 pan, since I like the toasted coconut best. Other people found that they could drop tablespoonfuls on cookie sheets and bake them for 15 minutes or so.
