Chocolate-Coconut Confection Bars
Yacht & Beach Club Resorts

Inspired by an early 1900s recipe, these bars are an old-fashioned Christmas delight, says Disney chef Kelly Smith.

Ingredients:
3 cups graham cracker crumbs
2/3 cup butter, melted
1/2 cup sugar
3/4 tsp. ground cinnamon
4-1/2 cups sweetened, flaked coconut
1/2 cup semisweet chocolate chips
1/2 cup chopped pecans
2 cans (14 oz. each) sweetened, condensed milk
Red and green jimmies or sprinkles, optional

Method:
Preheat oven to 325°F. Line 13”x9” pan with enough foil to overhang long sides by 2”; coat with cooking spray. Combine crumbs, butter, sugar and cinnamon. Press onto bottom of pan.

Combine coconut, chips and pecans. Spread evenly over crumb mixture. Pour milk over coconut mixture. If desired, sprinkle with jimmies. Bake 30 minutes or until lightly browned and center is just set. Cool. Using foil, lift from pan.
