- 1/2 cup confectioners sugar
Instructions
- Line an 8 x 8-inch pan with parchment paper and set aside.
- In a large mixing bowl, combine shredded coconut, coconut condensed milk, and confectioners sugar. Stir until a thick dough forms.
- Transfer the mixture to the prepared pan, pressing it down evenly with lightly wet hands.
- Refrigerate for at least 1 hour, or until the bars firm up.

Notes
- For a sugar-free version, substitute with sugar-free condensed milk and powdered sugar alternatives.
- Feel free to add toppings such as toasted coconut flakes or chocolate drizzle for extra flavor.
- If the dough is too sticky, chill it for 15-30 minutes before pressing it into the pan.
- For added texture, try a graham cracker base or mix-ins like crushed nuts or chocolate chips.
