Description
Old-School Jam Coconut Tart Bars are a classic no-bake treat that combines the sweetness of jam with a crunchy coconut base.
Ingredients
Scale
- 250 g plain biscuits
- 120 g butter
- 1 cup desiccated coconut
- 1/2 cup jam (apricot, strawberry, or mixed berry)
Instructions
- Line a square baking tin with parchment paper, leaving some overhang for easy removal later.
- Crush the biscuits into fine crumbs using a food processor or rolling pin.
- Melt the butter and pour it over the crushed biscuits in a large mixing bowl. Stir until evenly combined.
- Add the desiccated coconut and mix well.
- Press half of the biscuit mixture firmly into the prepared tin to form an even base.
- Spread the jam evenly over the base, making sure it reaches the edges.
- Sprinkle the remaining biscuit and coconut mixture over the jam layer and press gently to help it stick.
- Refrigerate for at least 2–3 hours, or until fully set.
- Once firm, lift out using the parchment paper, slice into bars or squares, and serve.
Notes
- Use any jam of your choice for different flavors.
- Store leftovers in the refrigerator.
