These white chocolate coconut bars are my go to when I need something sweet but don't have hours to spend in the kitchen. The beauty of this recipe is that you'll have freshly baked bars cooling on your counter in just 45 minutes total. I love using toasted coconut flakes because they add such wonderful flavor and texture, plus coconut is packed with healthy fats that keep you satisfied. The lime zest and juice brighten everything up beautifully, cutting through the richness of the white chocolate in the most delicious way. They're simple to make, budget friendly, and absolutely irresistible.
