Coconut Macaroon and Chocolate Chip Cookie Crumble Bars

A twist on traditional crumble bars, these no-bake treats combine the textures of coconut macaroons and chocolate chip cookies with a crunchy oat topping.

The Title of the Recipe

Ingredients

  • 2 cups sweetened shredded coconut
  • 1 cup unsalted butter, softened
  • 3/4 cup white granulated sugar
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips

Instructions

Step 1: Prepare the Coconut Macaroon Crust

In a medium bowl, whisk together the coconut, butter, sugar, and vanilla extract until well combined.

Step 2: Make the Chocolate Chip Cookie Topping

In a separate large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt. Add in the softened butter and mix until a dough forms. Fold in the chocolate chips.

Step 3: Assemble the Crumble Bars

Press half of the coconut macaroon mixture into the bottom of an 8x8 inch baking dish. Top with the chocolate chip cookie topping, pressing it down gently to ensure even distribution. Cover with the remaining coconut macaroon mixture.

Step 4: Add the Crunchy Oat Topping

In a small bowl, mix together 1/2 cup rolled oats and 1 tablespoon granulated sugar. Sprinkle this mixture evenly over the top of the crumble bars.

Step 5: Chill and Serve

Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld together. Cut into bars and serve chilled.

Note: These no-bake crumble bars are perfect for warm weather or when you want a dessert that's easy to make but still satisfies your sweet tooth!
