Ingredients

• 14 oz Sweetened condensed milk
• 3 cups Shredded sweetened coconut
• 2 cups Semi-sweet chocolate chips
• 2 tbsp Unsalted butter
• 1 tsp Vanilla extract
• 0.25 tsp Salt

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line an 8x8-inch baking pan with parchment paper, leaving an overhang for easy removal, and lightly grease it with butter or non-stick spray.

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, combine the sweetened condensed milk, shredded sweetened coconut, vanilla extract, and salt. Stir until the mixture is fully incorporated and uniformly sticky.

Step 3

Transfer the coconut mixture into the prepared baking pan. Using a spatula or the back of a spoon, press it down firmly and evenly to create a smooth, compact layer.

Step 4

Bake the coconut layer in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the edges turn golden brown. Remove from the oven and let cool completely in the pan.

Step 5

In a microwave-safe bowl, combine the semi-sweet chocolate chips and unsalted butter. Microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring in between, until the chocolate is fully melted and smooth.

Step 6

Pour the melted chocolate over the cooled coconut layer. Use a spatula to spread it evenly across the surface.

Step 7

Place the pan in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour, or until the chocolate is fully set.

Step 8

Once set, use the parchment paper overhang to lift the Mounds bars out of the pan. Place them on a cutting board and slice into 16 squares or bars.

Step 9

Serve chilled or at room temperature. Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 1 week.
