These chocolate coconut cookie bars are my simpler take on the classic magic cookie bars! They are made with a lot simpler and healthier ingredients. I use the Nature's Charm Sweetened Condensed Coconut Milk in these. These cookie bars are vegan, gluten-free, dairy-free, and so delicious!
These are such a yummy holiday dessert recipe option! I'd pair these with my gingerbread cookie bar recipe and brown sugar pop tart squares.

I always use Nature's Charm sweetened condensed coconut milk. It works as a perfect substitute to dairy sweetened condensed milk.
If storing them in the fridge, they will last up to 3 days. Or you can store them in the freezer!
Vegan & Gluten-free Chocolate Coconut Cookie Bars
Ingredients
Method
- Preheat oven to 350℉ and line an 8x8 pan with parchment paper.
- In a bowl, mix together the cookie base ingredients until you have a dough. Press this evenly into the prepared pan.
- Sprinkle your chocolate chips over the cookie layer, followed by the shredded coconut. Pour the sweetened condensed coconut milk evenly over top.
- Bake for about 18-20 minutes. Let the bars cool completely for at least 30 minutes before placing in the fridge to set for another 30 minutes. Once they are set, you can slice and enjoy!
