Ingredients
- 2 ½ cups (312.5 g) all-purpose flour
- ⅔ cup (133 g) granulated sugar
- 1 cup (2 sticks / 227 g) unsalted butter, cold, cubed
- 1 large egg, room temperature
- 1 can (14 ounces) sweetened condensed milk
- 1 cup (100 g) dried cranberries
- 1 bag (7 ounces) sweetened shredded coconut
- 1 cup (182 g) white chocolate chips
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350°F. Line a 9x13-inch baking dish with parchment and up the sides. Set aside.
- In a medium bowl, stir together the flour and granulated sugar.
- Add the butter cubes. Using a pastry blender or your fingers, cut them into the flour mixture until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
- Press the mixture evenly into the prepared pan, ensuring it is firm and compact. Bake for 12 minutes. The crust will not brown significantly.
- While the crust bakes, whisk together the egg and sweetened condensed milk in a large bowl until smooth. Stir in the dried cranberries and shredded coconut until evenly combined.
- Pour the mixture evenly over the partially baked crust. Sprinkle the white chocolate chips evenly over the top.
- Bake for an additional 18–22 minutes, or until the edges are golden and the center is set.
- Remove the pan from the oven and allow the bars to cool completely in the pan.
- Once cool, use the parchment paper overhang to lift the bars out of the pan.
- Cut into squares or bars for serving.
