Step-by-Step Instructions
Creating these Pineapple Coconut Pecan Cheesecake Bars is easier than you might think! First, I start by preheating my oven to 350°F (175°C). Next, I combine the crushed pecans and melted butter in a mixing bowl. Once it’s all mixed together, I press this mixture into the bottom of a greased 9×13 baking pan. The nutty aroma wafts up as I press it down, and I can already tell this crust will be divine! (See the next page below to continue steps…)
