Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and prepare a 9x13 inch baking pan by greasing it or lining it with parchment paper.
  2. Cream together the unsalted butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar in a large mixing bowl using an electric mixer for about 2 minutes.
  3. Gradually add in all-purpose flour and mix until just combined.
  4. Stir in the sweetened grated coconut until evenly distributed throughout the dough.
  5. Spread the coconut mixture evenly into the prepared pan and bake for about 20 minutes until the edges turn golden brown.
  6. Allow the baked base to cool for 10 minutes, then drizzle goat's milk caramel sauce over it and sprinkle chocolate chips on top.
  7. Let the bars cool completely in the pan for 30 minutes, or refrigerate to speed up the cooling.
  8. Lift the bars out of the pan using parchment paper, cut into squares or rectangles, and serve.
