Originating in Nanaimo, British Columbia, Canada, these bars are made without an oven: a cookie crumb base, a vanilla cream layer, and a chocolate topping. The three layers and rich sweetness make them a favorite with tea.
Mix the cookie crumbs, shredded coconut, walnuts, melted butter, cocoa, and sugar. Press the mixture evenly into a greased pan and refrigerate for 20 minutes to firm up.
Beat the butter, confectioners’ sugar, milk, and vanilla until smooth and creamy. Spread over the base and refrigerate for another 20 minutes.
Melt the chocolate and butter using a double boiler, then pour over the cream layer.
Refrigerate for at least 2 hours, until firm.
Cut into square or rectangular bars and serve.
Store in a sealed container in the refrigerator for 1 week or in the freezer for 2 months. Thawing takes a few minutes.
