Prepare a 9 x 13 in. baking dish with a foil sling (I use one long sheet across the length of my dish, and two overlapping short sheets across the width of my dish \u2014 just arrange it so that it has some overlap and overhang to help you pull the bars out after they\u2019re finished). Cut the butter into the flour and powdered sugar and press into the baking dish (I used a food processor to cut the fat into the flour \u2014 about 6-10 pulses \u2014 and then the bottom of a glass to press the mixture into the pan). Bake 18-20 minutes or until light brown. Set on a wire rack.<\/p>\n<p>Toast coconut for the topping: Spread about 1 cup of the coconut flakes out on a baking sheet and bake in the oven along with your shortbread crust for 3-6 minutes, stirring every minute or so, until the coconut is golden brown. Spread it out on a plate to cool completely.<\/p>\n<p>Make coconut cream filling: Combine the half-and-half, coconut milk, eggs, sugar, cornstarch, and salt in a large saucepan and bring it to a boil over medium-low heat, whisking constantly until it\u2019s thick and bubbling (this can take anywhere from 15-30 minutes. Just do it. It\u2019s worth it.) Add coconut and vanilla extracts and the 1 1\/2 cups of untoasted coconut and stir. Pour this filling over your cooled crust, letting it cool for a bit on the counter before sticking the whole thing in the fridge to chill until firm, about 2 to 4 hours.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Ingredients Crust Ingredients: 1 cup (2 sticks) butter 2 cups all-purpose flour 1\/2 cup powdered sugar Coconut Cream Filling Ingredients: 3 cups half-and-half 3 cups coconut milk 4 eggs 1 1\/2 cups white sugar 2\/3 cup cornstarch 1\/2 teaspoon salt 1 1\/2 cup flaked coconut 1\/2 teaspoon coconut extract 1\/2 teaspoon vanilla extract Whipped Cream [&hellip;] <a class=\"g1-link g1-link-more\" href=\"https:\/\/leaderrecipes.com\/coconut-cream-pie-bars\/\">More<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[4],"tags":[],"adace-sponsor":[],"wps_subtitle":"","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/leaderrecipes.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/4672"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/leaderrecipes.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/leaderrecipes.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/leaderrecipes.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/leaderrecipes.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=4672"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/leaderrecipes.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/4672\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/leaderrecipes.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=4672"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/leaderrecipes.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=4672"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/leaderrecipes.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=4672"},{"taxonomy":"adace-sponsor","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/leaderrecipes.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/adace-sponsor?post=4672"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
