    Utensils Used
    | 1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees. | 2. Line an 8x8-inch square pan with heavy-duty foil that extends over edges of pan and butter foil. | 3. In a food processor fitted with a metal blade or in a large bowl with a pastry blender, combine first 5 ingredients; add butter in small intervals while mixing until texture resembles coarse cornmeal. | 4. Add nuts and rum; blend. | 5. Press dough firmly and evenly into pan. | 6. Bake until crust deflates (it will puff at first) and edges are barely firm to touch, about 15 minutes. | 7. Cool slightly on wire rack. | 8. As crust cools, blend filling ingredients together in a bowl. | 9. When crust is firm and still warm, spoon on filling; spread evenly. | 10. Return pan to oven and bake until edges turn golden, about 15 minutes. | 11. Remove and cool in pan on wire rack. | 12. Make chocolate layer by combining all ingredients in a small saucepan over low heat or microwave-safe bowl. | 13. Heat (in 30-second intervals, if in microwave) while whisking until melted and smooth. | 14. Pour hot topping over filling; spread evenly. | 15. If desired, sprinkle coconut and/or almonds evenly over top while chocolate layer is still hot. | 16. Refrigerate for 4 hours or overnight before bringing to room temperature and cutting into bars. | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
