BOY SCOUT BARS
These bars are reminiscent of a chocolate chip cookie, but better. Browned butter and brown sugar add a subtle butterscotch flavor, and coconut keeps the insides extra-gooey.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Butter and flour a 13-by-9-inch glass baking dish.
- Place the sugar in a large bowl. Cook the butter in a small skillet over medium-high heat, shaking the pan occasionally, until the foam cooks off, the bubbles become smaller and the butter begins to brown, about 7 minutes. Remove the pan from the heat when the butter is golden and the solids are a nutty brown. (The butter will continue to darken off the heat.) Let cool 5 minutes. Beat the browned butter into the sugar until the sugar is fully moistened and looks like wet crumbs.
- Meanwhile, in another medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda and salt.
- Beat the eggs and vanilla into the brown sugar mixture. Add the flour mixture to the brown sugar mixture a bit at a time, and mix until a smooth, thick batter forms. Fold in the chocolate chips and coconut. Press the batter into to the prepared dish and spread to evenly fill it.
- Bake until the bars are light brown around the edges, the center is set and crackly and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out with slightly moist crumbs adhering, about 25 minutes. Let cool for at least 1 hour. Cut into squares and serve.
BOY SCOUT FOIL DINNER
My oldest son is a Boy Scout and made this on a camping trip. It's winter here right now but I decided I'd make something close to bake in the oven.
