Recipe
Nut-Free Nanaimo Bars
by Amanda on October 20, 2009 in Brownies and Bars, Desserts, Special Occasion
Recipe Description
These are a popular Canadian treat that are absolutely delicious. They are sweet and rich and oh so decadent. Even non-coconut lovers have been known to dive in for seconds.
However, they are often made with crushed almonds or walnuts, so my sister and I developed a nut-free version. Creamy and chocolately and coconutty. Enjoy!
Preparation Instructions
First Layer:
Mix the first 3 ingredients in top of a double boiler. Add the egg to cook and thicken. Remove from heat. Stir in the crumbs and coconut. Press firmly into an ungreased 8×8″ pan. Place in the freezer as you make the next layer.
Second Layer:
Cream all layer ingredients together well. Beat until light. Remove pan from freezer and spread mixture over the first layer.
Third Layer:
Melt chocolate and butter over low heat. Cool. Once cool, but still liquid, pour over the second layer and chill in the refrigerator until set.

These. Are. DELICIOUS! Although my dad is Canadian, I had never heard of these before and I cannot believe that I had never been exposed to their yumminess before! Thank you for posting!

These were awesome! I was disappointed about what seemed to be a frosting layer in the middle and was worried about the final product. After chilling them overnight they rocked! I also (accidentally) used bittersweet instead of semisweet chocolate for the top layer but still it turned out great.
