Coconut-Chocolate Squares, Simple

By seamline

These simple, slightly chewy squares are definitely for the coconut lovers out there. I find the sweetness from the mini chocolate chips is sufficient to sweeten these squares. As an alternative, you could use chopped dates or chopped dried apricots.

Ingredients

• 2 cups finely shredded unsweetened coconut
• 2 eggs
• 1 tsp vanilla
• 1/2 cup mini chocolate chips

Preparation

Step 1

1. Preheat oven to 350F. Grease a 9×9 inch baking pan.

2. Whisk egg and vanilla together in a small mixing bowl. Add coconut and chocolate chips and stir to combine.

3. Pour out into prepared baking pan. Flatten out and pat down with a spatula or back of a wooden spoon.

4. Bake for 22 minutes, until starting to turn golden. Let cool.

5. Cut into squares and enjoy!
