3 cups (170g) chilled butter, cubed

3/4 Cup (177ml) mild corn syrup
1/4 Cup (56 g) unsalted butter melted
1 Cup (85 g) Flaked coconut that has been sweetened and flavored

Directions:

Pecans should be placed as a layer in a baking pan that is shallow. The pecans should bake for about 8-10 minutes, or till lightly toasty. Mix in the middle during the baking.
Cover the sides and bottom of the 9”x13”x2 baking pan using aluminum foil, leaving an overhang on two sides. The foil should be sprayed with grease.
Mix together the confectioners’ sugar, flour, and cocoa. Mix in the chilled butter and mix with a pastry mixer until the mixture is like coarse meal. The mixture should be pressed into the bottom of the pan and around 3/4 inch from the edges of the pan.
It is best to bake the pie for around 15 minutes. Take it out of the oven and then sprinkle chocolate chips all on top of the pie. Cool on the wire rack for a minimum of 30 minutes.
Place eggs in an enormous mixing bowl and gently beat. Mix in the corn syrup, brown sugar, and the melted butter. Mix until it is smooth. Add the pecans and coconut. Sprinkle evenly over the baked crust.
Bake for 28-34 minutes, during which time the sides are golden while the filling is being set. Let it cool completely on an uncooked wire rack. After that, chill for about an hour.
Utilizing the foil’s overhang Lift the bars out of the pan and set them on an edging board. Make use of a sharp knife to cut the bars into pieces.
