Preparation

• Preheat your oven to 325 degrees.
• Melt ¾ cup butter and pour it into your stand mixer or medium-sized mixing bowl. Add 1 ½ cups brown sugar and mix for about 30 seconds, or until they are well combined.
• Add three eggs. You may want to crack them into a separate bowl before you add them to the butter mixture.
• Add ¾ teaspoon of vanilla and mix well.
• In a separate bowl combine 1 ½ cups flour, ½ teaspoon baking powder, and ½ teaspoon salt. Add the dry ingredients to your creamed mixture and mix for about 2 minutes, or until the batter is nice and smooth.
• Add ½ cup slivered almonds, ½ cup coconut and 1 cup milk chocolate chips.
• Spray a 9x13 pan with cooking spray and spread the batter evenly over it.
• Bake for 35-40 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the middle comes out clean.
• Let the bars rest for about 10 minutes, then slice them into 12 squares, top with vanilla ice cream, chocolate syrup, caramel sauce and dig in.
