Add already prepared vanilla pudding and mix until well combined.
Finally add shredded coconut and stir well. Spread evenly in an already prepared dish, using some solid object to make a firm layer. Leave aside.

what do you mean "use a solid object to make firm layer" ?

You can use glass as a solid object to press the layer, Pamela.

Mine did not turn out like bars. It was more like just pudding. Why would this happen? I followed to a T.

Hi Mellisa,

You need to use finely shredded coconut, because it absorbs more.

It looks delicious but is it shredded sweetened coconut or plain shredded coconut? Thanks.

Thanks Eileen :-) It's shredded unsweetened coconut.
