Method
Prepare the Base
- Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Line an 8x8 inch baking pan with parchment paper.
- In a mixing bowl, combine flour, brown sugar, melted butter, and salt. Mix until crumbly.
- Press the mixture evenly into the bottom of the prepared baking pan.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 10 minutes, then remove and let cool slightly.
Make the Caramel Layer
- In a medium saucepan over medium heat, combine sweetened condensed milk, brown sugar, and cubed butter.
- Stir continuously until the mixture comes to a gentle boil and thickens, about 5-7 minutes.
- Remove from heat and stir in the shredded coconut until well combined.
- Pour the caramel mixture over the baked base and spread evenly.
Bake and Cool
- Return the pan to the oven and bake for an additional 15 minutes, until the top is golden.
- Remove from the oven and let cool completely in the pan on a wire rack.
- Once cooled, lift the bars out using the parchment paper and cut into squares.
