Title: Cremige Kokosschnitten
Ingredients:
– For the crust:
– 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour
– ½ cup granulated sugar
– ½ cup unsalted butter, cold and cubed
– 1 egg yolk
– For the coconut filling:
– 1 14 oz can sweetened condensed milk
– 2 cups shredded coconut
– 2 eggs
– 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
– For the topping:
– ½ cup shredded coconut, toasted
Instructions:
1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (180°C) and grease a 9×9 inch baking pan.
2. In a mixing bowl, combine the flour and sugar for the crust. Add in the cold, cubed butter and use your hands or a pastry cutter to work the mixture until it resembles coarse crumbs.
3. Mix in the egg yolk until the dough comes together. Press the mixture into the bottom of the prepared baking pan to form an even crust. Bake for 15 minutes until lightly golden.
4. While the crust is baking, prepare the coconut filling. In a separate bowl, whisk together the sweetened condensed milk, shredded coconut, eggs, and vanilla extract until well combined.
5. Pour the coconut filling over the baked crust, spreading it out evenly. Return the pan to the oven and bake for an additional 20-25 minutes or until the filling is set and the edges are golden.
6. Remove the pan from the oven and sprinkle the toasted shredded coconut over the top of the bars. Allow the bars to cool completely in the pan before slicing into squares.
7. Serve the Cremige Kokosschnitten as a delightful dessert or snack alongside your favorite beverage. Enjoy the creamy coconut goodness!
