Instructions

• Preheat the oven to 375°F. Line an 8×8 pan with parchment paper or foil.
• In a large bowl, combine 2½ cups graham cracker crumbs, 2 cups shredded coconut, 1 sweetened condensed milk, ¼ cup melted butter, and 1 teaspoon vanilla. Stir until the mixture comes together into a firm, slightly sticky mass.
• Transfer the mixture to the prepared pan and press it firmly and evenly into the bottom to form a compact layer.
• Bake at 375°F for 15 minutes. Remove the pan from the oven and allow the baked layer to cool until it is warm to the touch (about 10–15 minutes).
• While the base cools, break 4 milk chocolate bars (approximately 42 grams each) into pieces and place them in a small bowl with ¼ cup oil. Melt the chocolate and oil together, stirring until smooth—microwave in short intervals with stirring between, or melt over a double boiler.
• Pour the melted chocolate evenly over the graham cracker-coconut layer and spread to cover. Let cool completely until the chocolate is set before slicing and serving.
