Coconut-Chocolate Prune Squares
Coconut, chocolate chunks, Diced Prunes, and almonds make this bar cookie taste like an indulgent trail mix. Toasting the coconut and almonds before mixing the batter deepens the flavour of the cookie, giving it a light, caramelized flavour. Each square contains approximately the equivalent of one prune per bar.

Οδηγίες Εκτέλεσης
- Preheat the oven to 350F (180C). Oil an 8-in (20 cm) square baking pan and line with parchment paper.

- In a bowl, mix together the flour, oats, sugar, salt, baking powder, and baking soda. Stir in the almonds and coconut. Stir in the butter until a batter forms, then stir in the prunes and chocolate until evenly incorporated.
- Press the batter into the prepared pan firmly. Bake until lightly browned, 20 to 24 minutes. Cool for 20 minutes. Unmold and cool completely. Once cool, cut into 16 squares.
