Ingredients
2/3 cup OliveNation Desiccated Coconut
4 oz (8 tablespoons) unsalted butter
10 oz mini marshmallows
1/4 tsp fine sea salt
3/4 tsp OliveNation Coconut Extract
Zest from 2 limes, divided
5 cups Rice Krispies Cereal
Directions
Line an 8x8 pan with parchment paper, leaving an overhang on all sides. Pre-heat the oven to 325 degrees and line a small baking sheet with parchment paper. Spread the coconut flakes on your prepared baking sheet and toast, stirring frequently and watching carefully, for 3 – 5 minutes. Once light golden brown remove immediately from the oven and set aside.
Melt the butter in a large pot or skillet. Add the marshmallows and stir till fully melted and smooth. Remove from the heat and add the salt, both extracts and half the lime zest. Add the cereal and coconut flakes and fold in quickly till evenly coated. Transfer to your prepared pan and use a greased spatula to gently press in evenly. Let cool completely (do not remove from the pan).
Melt the white chocolate and drizzle over the cooled bars. Let the chocolate set for 10 – 15 minutes, then scatter the remaining lime zest over. Let set completely before cutting into bars. Store at room temperature in an airtight container for up to 3 days.
