These sweet squares are so good. They have coconut flavor and maraschino cherry flavor. From Jean Paré. They are easier to slice the second and third day.

Time 45m

Yield 36 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 1/4 cups graham cracker crumbs
1/2 cup butter
1/2 cup brown sugar, packed
1/3 cup all-purpose flour
2 cups shredded coconut, medium grated
11 ounces sweetened condensed milk
2 cups icing sugar
4 tablespoons butter
3 tablespoons cherry juice (maraschino cherry juice)

Steps:

  • Bottom: Mix the 4 first ingredients together. Put in a greased 9x9 baking pan (grease the sides also). Cook in the oven at 350 F for 10 minutes.
  • Second Layer: In a clean bowl, mix coconut and condensed milk. Spread this mixture on the bottom, in the pan. Cook in the oven at 350 F for 20 minutes, or until the cookie begins to golden on the sides. Let cool before icing.
  • Icing: Beat all ingredients of the icing together, adding juice, if needed to have a good consistency. Put the icing on the cold cookie. Put in an hermetic container and let rest at least one day to let the cookie soften. You can eat the squares the same day but they're harder to cut when fresh.

This recipe is a great starting point, but I think it could be improved with a few tweaks. I would add a little bit of salt to the batter and maybe use a different type of frosting.

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my squares turned out dry and crumbly.

I had some trouble getting the squares to set properly. I think I might have overcooked them a bit.

These squares are a bit too sweet for my taste, but I think they would be perfect for kids or people with a sweet tooth.

I'm not a huge fan of cake mix desserts, but these squares were surprisingly good. The filling is rich and creamy, and the cake layers are moist and flavorful.

These squares are a great way to use up leftover cake mix. I always have a box or two in my pantry, so it's nice to have a recipe that I can use them for.

This recipe is a keeper! The squares are so rich and decadent, and the combination of vanilla, chocolate, and strawberry is perfect.
