Shopping List
    Graham Crust
  • 1 33333333/100000000 cups graham cracker crumbs (we use this)
  • 1/4 cup plant-based butter, melted
  • 1/4 cup granulated sugar or coconut sugar Topping
  • 1 (11 ounce) can condensed coconut milk (we use this)
  • 1 cup pecans and/or walnuts, chopped
  • 3/4 cup mini vegan chocolate chips
  • 3/4 cup shredded unsweetened coconut flakes

Instructions
  1. Step 1: Preheat the oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. Line 1 (8 in. x 8 in.) pan(s) with parchment paper so that the parchment flap hangs from the sides. This will make it easier to remove the bars from the pan later.
  2. Step 2: Grind down the whole graham crackers in a food processor until it reaches a flour consistency. Measure out the 1.3 cup of crumbs needed. Add the crumbs, butter, and sugar to a mixing bowl. Mix until combined, it should feel sandy.
  3. Step 3: Transfer the crust mixture to the prepared pan, pressing it down evenly (don't forget the corners) to create a flat surface.
  4. Step 4: Pre-bake the crust in the oven for 10 minutes. Once it's done, remove from the oven to cool, at least 10 minutes.
  5. Step 5: Sprinkle the following evenly over the cooled crust, in order: pecans, chocolate chips, and shredded coconut. Pour the condensed coconut milk over everything, making sure to fill any gaps evenly. If you'd like, sprinkle some extra chocolate chips on top.
  6. Step 6: Bake at 350 degrees Fahrenheit for 20 to 22 minutes. Set on a wire rack to cool completely before transferring to the refrigerator to harden. Refrigerate at least 2 hours or overnight.
  7. Serve: Once hardened, slice and enjoy. These will make 24 very small pieces, or 16 larger ones. Enjoy chilled or at room temperature. Freezes well.
