INGREDIENTS:

  • 1 can (15 ounces) sweetened condensed milk
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla
  • pinch salt
  • 2 1/2 cups flaked coconut
  • 2 cups chopped dates
  • 2 cups chopped pecans
  • 1/4 cup finely chopped maraschino cherries
  • 1/4 cup semisweet chocolate chips, melted

PREPARATION:

In a mixing bowl, blend sweetened condensed milk, salt and vanilla. Stir in coconut, dates, chopped pecans and chopped cherries. Grease and 8x8-inch baking dish; line with parchment paper and grease again. Spoon coconut mixture into prepared baking dish. Bake for 30 minutes at 350°; remove and let cool 2-3 minutes. Using the parchment paper to help, remove from pan in one piece. Remove paper and cool completely. Spread melted chocolate over the cooled bars. Let chocolate set before cutting.
