Triple Layer Bars

Since my family likes chocolate, coconut and peanut butter, these bars are always a hit.


I don’t know that any of them would say that they like those three things together, but somehow these bars are a great blend of the flavors.  Here’s the recipe:

Triple Layer Bars Crust:
1 1/4 cups flour 2/3 cup sugar 1/3 cup baking cocoa 1/4 cup brown sugar, packed 1 tsp. baking powder 1/4 tsp. salt 1/2 cup cold butter 2 eggs First topping:
7 ounces flaked coconut 1 can (14 oz) sweetened condensed milk Second topping:
2 cups chocolate chips 1/2 cup creamy peanut butter First, combine flour, sugar, cocoa, brown sugar, baking powder and salt in a mixing bowl.  Cut in cold butter until mixture is crumbly.


Add eggs and mix well.


Spread into a greased 9 x 13 inch baking pan.


Bake at 350 for 8 minutes.  Remove from oven.


Sprinkle coconut over the crust.


Drizzle sweetened condensed milk over the coconut.




Return to oven and bake for 20 to 25 minutes or until lightly browned.


In a saucepan, melt chocolate chips and peanut butter.


Stir until smooth and spread over bars.


Let cool on a wire rack.  Cut and serve.


YUM!


Have a great day!
