Chocolate Coconut Almonds Bars that are a joy.

I used to trade my peanut butter cups for coconut cast bars as a kid on Halloween. This bar is a throwback to that classic.

1 box brownie mix

1/3 cup oil
1/3 cup water
16 ounces shredded coconut
8 ounces sweetened condensed milk
2 ounce coconut rum
10 ounces almonds
16 ounces chocolate chocolate bar
Cooking spray

Heat oven to 350.

Mix brownie mix, egg, water and oil.

Add to sprayed 9 x 13 pan.

Bake for 10 minutes.

Mix coconut flakes, condensed milk and rum.

Flatten mixture on parchment paper to 8 1/2 x 12.

Pull out brownies after 10 minutes and add coconut mixture to top.

Add almonds to to of coconut evenly.

Bake for 12-15 minutes until coconut browns the almonds are toasted and brownies are cooked.

Remove brownies and cool for 1 hour.

Melt chocolate in microwave.

Pour on top of brownies/coconut/almonds and spread to even.

Serve.
