List of Ingredients




1 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
1/3 cup granulated sugar
1/2 cup butter
1 cup flaked coconut
2/3 cup maple syrup
1/4 teaspoon salt

Recipe



In a mixing bowl, stir together the flour and sugar; cut in butter until the mixture is crumbly. Press into an 8-inch square baking pan. Bake at 375° for 15 to 20 minutes.
Combine coconut, syrup, and salt in a small saucepan.
