From Fort Collins, Colorado, Barb Bovberg shares, "I’ve been whipping up these delicious bars for over 10 years, with recent help from my 5-year-old daughter. I bake them every Christmas and have received many compliments and recipe requests. The chocolate drizzle makes such a pretty lacy effect."

These are so delicious and I got rave reviews at a Christmas dessert treat day at work! One awesome variation might be to add mini chocolate chips and the nuts to the coconut layer, and then drizzle with just melted white chips (rather than white & chocolate) as the finale. Very pretty presentation.

These bars are delicious and incredibly easy to make. They are loved by everyone who comes to our home and tries them. They're a keeper, for sure.

J'ai utilisé des framboises fraîches que j'avais congelé. J'ai décongelé et égouté. ensuite j'ai épaissie le liquide et à la fin ajouté les framboises. J'ai refroidie et remplacer la jam par cette préparation.
