Instructions

  1. 1 Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Line bottom of a 9-inch square baking pan with foil. Lightly coat with cooking spray.
  2. 2 For crust, pulse flour, oats, pecans, white sugar, coconut, brown sugar, and salt in a food processor until blended. Add butter; pulse until mixture resembles wet sand.
  3. 3 Spoon three-fourths of oat mixture (about 4 1/2 cups) into the prepared pan. Press into an even layer. Transfer remaining one-fourth of mixture to a small bowl; using your hands, squeeze and rub mixture together until crumbly. Spread streusel on a rimmed baking sheet.
  4. 4 Bake both pans, stirring streusel halfway through, until streusel is golden, about 18 minutes. Remove streusel from oven. Bake crust until golden brown, about 12 minutes more.
  5. 5 Meanwhile, for filling, microwave chocolate chips and peanut butter in a medium microwave-safe bowl on High in 30-second intervals, stirring after each interval, until mixture is melted and fully combined.
  6. 6 To assemble, pour chocolate mixture over baked crust. Sprinkle with streusel. Chill until set, 2 to 3 hours. Cut into 20 bars.
