Toffee Coconut Chocolate Bars

My sister made these bars for a 4th of July party and I haven’t stopped thinking of them ever since. Filled with coconut, chocolate chips and toffee bits, I literally had to hide them from myself when they got out of the oven. They were definitely not safe with me around, lol! . . .
