- To get started on this recipe, you will want to preheat your oven to 325 degrees and prepare your 8 inch baking pan. To prepare your pan, spray it with nonstick spray and flour it. If desired you can line the pan with parchment paper or foil, just make sure to spray with no stick spray.
- Add your golden Oreos and melted butter to a food processor. Blend well until your finished product becomes a fine crumble. Pour your crumbs into the bottom of your pan and press them into the bottom.
- Bake the crust at 325 for 10 minutes.
- While your crust is baking, and cooling, chop up your dried pineapple. You want small pieces to ensure even coverage.
- Blend your macadamia nuts in your food processor to form crumbs.
- Start to layer the remaining ingredients onto the cooled cookie crust. Sprinkle 1 cup of the white chocolate chips along the bottom. Follow the chocolate chips with pineapple, coconut and nuts and then pour the sweetened condensed milk evenly over top.
- Decorate the top of your cookie bars with the remaining white chocolate chips and a little bit of coconut.
- Turn your oven’s temperature up to 350 degrees and bake for 30 minutes. When the sides start to turn golden in colour, it is time to remove the cookie bars from the oven.
- Cool your cookie bars completely and then cover with foul and chill in the fridge for a few hours.
- Once chilled, remove the bars from the fridge and allow them to sit at room temperature for about 10 – 15 minutes.
- Slice into bars and enjoy.
