Bars:
2/3 cup firmly packed brown sugar
1/2 cup softened butter
2 eggs
1 teaspoon vanilla
3/4 cup flour
3/4 cup uncooked quick-cooking oatmeal
1 (3/4 ounce) package instant coconut cream pudding and pie mix

1-1/2 cups confectioners sugar
3 tablespoons softened butter
1 to 2 tablespoons milk
1/4 cup sweetened flaked coconut
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Butter a 8-inch square baking pan.
To prepare the bars, put the brown sugar and Butter in a large bowl and beat
with an electric mixer on medium speed, scraping down the side of the bowl,

beater speed to low, add the flour, oats, and pudding mix, and beat until
well combined.
Evenly spread the mixture in the prepared baking pan. Bake for 23 to 27
minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
Remove from the oven and cool completely.
To prepare the frosting, put the confectioners sugar and butter in a small
bowl and beat with an electric mixer on medium speed until well combined.
Add enough milk for desired spreading consistency and beat until combined.
