Coconut White Chocolate Streusel Bars are thee BEST dessert bar in the whole world!
This recipe is a spin off of my Gram’s Chocolate Chip Squares recipe that I’ve loved all of my life! Oh my. Heavenly.
I love this recipe for several reasons- first I love my grandma and miss her dearly so when I make her recipes I’m reminded of the times we spent in her kitchen cooking together. Next, I love that this recipe is simple to make and baked all in one pan- so much faster than baking batches and batches of cookies when you’re in a pinch for time.
