Divine Coconut Bars

I made these this weekend with very pleasant results.  These are among the most buttery, decadent bars I've ever created.  In fact, they were reminiscent of the mounds candy bar filing.

Do freeze some of these as they pop out of the oven.  You won't have many left the following day.  There is something about that buttery, gooey center that keeps you coming back for more!

2 cups all-purpose flour
1 cup packed brown sugar
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 cup butter, melted



FILLING:
3 large eggs
1 can (14 ounces) sweetened condensed milk
1/2 cup all-purpose flour
1/4 cup packed brown sugar
1/4 cup butter, melted
3 teaspoons vanilla extract
1/2 teaspoon salt
4 cups flaked coconut, divided

Preheat oven to 350°. Line a 13x9-in. baking pan with parchment paper, letting ends extend up sides.

In a large bowl, mix flour, brown sugar and salt; stir in 1 cup melted butter. Press onto bottom of prepared pan. Bake 12-15 minutes or until light brown. Cool 10 minutes on a wire rack. Reduce oven setting to 325°.
​

In a large bowl, whisk the first seven filling ingredients until blended; stir in 3 cups coconut. Pour over crust; sprinkle with remaining coconut. Bake 25-30 minutes or until light golden brown. Cool in pan on a wire rack. Lifting with parchment paper, remove from pan. Cut into bars.
