Prep time: 15 min
Cook time: 30 min
Total time: 45 min
Yield: 4 servings
Ingredients: 2 cups flour; 1 cup brown sugar; ¾ cup butter, melted (no substitutions); ½ cup salted cashews, finely chopped; 1 (300 ml) can sweetened condensed milk; 1 ½ cups flaked coconut; 2 eggs; ¾ cup lemon juice; ½ cup golden seedless raisins, chopped; ½ cup dried apricot, chopped

Servings: persons

2 cups flour
1 cup brown sugar
¾ cup butter, melted (no substitutions)
½ cup salted cashews, finely chopped
1 (300 ml) can sweetened condensed milk
1 ½ cups flaked coconut
2 eggs
¾ cup lemon juice
½ cup golden seedless raisins, chopped
½ cup dried apricot, chopped

1
Preheat oven to 350F and spray a 9x13-inch pan with cooking spray.
2
Mix the flour and brown sugar until smooth and lump free, add the melted butter and chopped cashews and mix until well combined (should look like fine crumbs).
3
Press mixture into a 9x13-inch pan and bake for 10 minutes.
4
Mix the eggs and condensed milk (I use the same bowl) until smooth and well combined, then mix in the lemon juice until smooth and well integrated.
5
Add the coconut, chopped raisins and chopped apricots and mix well.
6
Spread the coconut mixture evenly over the partially baked crust and return to the oven for 30 minutes until a light golden in colour (note the coconut in these squares is supposed to be slightly moist rather than dry so the top may look very slightly moist at this point).
7
Run a knife around the edge of the pan while still warm to prevent sides from sticking, wait until the squares are completely cool before cutting into 35.
