Coconut Cream Pie Bars
All of the delicious taste of a coconut cream pie made in bar form. This dessert has an excellent crust with a chewy layer of cream cheese and loads of coconut. This is a great dessert for coconut lovers!
Summer is approaching which means more people getting outdoors, picnics, parties, etc. I like pies and cheesecakes, but I wouldn’t necessarily bring these to an outdoor function. In this case, I want something that is a little more grab and go, as well as something that makes a larger portion.
As you know, most of my inspiration comes from recipes I see on Pinterest. I credit this recipe back to Hayley Parker at The Domestic Rebel.
To make this recipe, you’ll start off with making the crust. In a large bowl, combine the cake mix, coconut cream pudding mix, melted butter, and egg. (This is the cake mix and pudding mix I used for this recipe)
