Ingredients

  • 1 package (16 oz) refrigerated Pillsbury™ Ready to Bake!™ Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough (24 Count)
  • 1 can (14 oz) sweetened condensed milk (not evaporated)
  • 2 cups sweetened shredded coconut
  • 1 cup chopped coconut creme-filled chocolate candy drops or pieces, unwrapped
  • 1 cup chocolate chips

Steps

  • 1
    Heat oven to 375°F. Line 11x9-inch pan with cooking parchment paper.
  • 2
    Remove cookie dough from package; place in pan. Press with fingers evenly in bottom of pan. Bake 13 minutes. Remove pan from oven; do not turn off oven. With back of spoon, gently press puffy crust down to deflate.
  • 3
    In large bowl, stir together condensed milk, coconut and chopped candy. Spoon over partially baked crust.
  • 4
    Return to oven; bake 18 to 20 minutes longer or until edges begin to brown. Cool completely, about 45 minutes.
  • 5
    In microwavable bowl, microwave chocolate chips on High 30 to 60 seconds or until chocolate begins to melt; stir until all chocolate is melted and smooth. Pour over cooled bars. Let stand at room temperature about 30 minutes or until chocolate is set. Cut into 5 rows by 3 rows or 6 rows by 3 rows.

Tips from the Pillsbury Kitchens

  • tip 1
    If you don't have coconut creme-filled chocolate candy, chocolate chips could be used instead.
  • tip 2
    To speed up the cooling process you can let the dessert cool for 10 to 15 minutes at room temperature and then refrigerate for 30 more minutes.
