Follow The Directions

01

Step
5 mins

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease and flour a 9x13 inch baking pan. (5 minutes)

02

Step
5 mins

In a medium bowl, cream together the softened butter and granulated sugar until light and fluffy. (5 minutes)

03

Step
3 mins

Beat in the eggs one at a time, then gradually stir in the all-purpose flour and cocoa powder until just combined. Be careful not to overmix. (3 minutes)

04

Step
2 mins

Press the dough evenly into the bottom of the prepared pan. (2 minutes)

05

Step
20 mins

Bake for 15-20 minutes in the preheated oven, or until the edges are lightly golden and the center is set. (20 minutes)

06

Step
2 mins

Remove from the oven and immediately sprinkle the toasted almonds and sweetened shredded coconut evenly over the warm crust. (2 minutes)

07

Step
2 mins

Drizzle the sweetened condensed milk evenly over the entire pan, ensuring that it seeps into all the nooks and crannies. (2 minutes)

08

Step
15 mins

Return to the oven and bake for an additional 15 minutes, or until the coconut is lightly toasted and the condensed milk is bubbly. (15 minutes)

09

Step
1 hrs

Remove from the oven and let cool completely in the pan on a wire rack. This is crucial for easy frosting and cutting. (1 hour)

10

Step
5 mins

Once completely cool, frost evenly with the prepared chocolate frosting. (5 minutes)

11

Step
5 mins

Cut into squares or bars of your desired size and serve. (5 minutes)

Toast the almonds before chopping to enhance their nutty flavor. Spread them on a baking sheet and bake at 350°F (175°C) for 5-7 minutes, or until fragrant and lightly golden.
Use a high-quality chocolate frosting for the best flavor. Alternatively, you can make your own homemade chocolate frosting.
For a richer flavor, use dark chocolate cocoa powder instead of regular cocoa powder.
Store the candy bars in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days, or in the refrigerator for up to a week.
