Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9×9-inch baking pan.
  2. In a bowl, mix graham cracker crumbs, melted butter, and sugar until combined. Press into the bottom of the pan to form a compact crust.
  3. Melt dark chocolate chips in the microwave or double boiler until smooth. Spread raspberries over the crust, then pour melted chocolate on top.
  4. Sprinkle shredded coconut over the chocolate layer.
  5. Whisk egg, vanilla extract, and salt in a bowl. Drizzle over the coconut layer.
  6. Bake for 25–30 minutes until edges are golden brown and custard topping is set. Allow to cool completely before cutting into bars.
