INGREDIENTS
What makes these magic cookie bars so great, is that the ingredients are simple, and most can be stored in the pantry; making it a dessert recipe that can be made at the last minute because you can have the ingredients stocked up in the pantry!
What you’ll need for these bar cookies:
- ½ cup melted salted butter
- 1 ½ cups graham crumbs
- 1 can sweeten condensed milk
- 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 1 cup butterscotch chips
- 1 cup flaked or shredded coconut
- 1 cup chopped almonds
INSTRUCTIONS
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
- Prepare a 9 x 13 inch baking dish or baking pan, by greasing it or lining it with parchment paper or wax paper. (The parchment paper makes cleanup so much easier!)
- In a medium sized mixing bowl, stir to combine the crushed graham crackers and melted butter.
- Press the graham cracker crumb mixture in the bottom of the prepared 9 x 13 inch pan to create the buttery graham cracker crust.
- Slowly pour over the entire can of sweetened condensed milk so it covers the graham crust.
- Sprinkle with coconut (reserving a bit for the top), sprinkling as evenly as possible across the top of the sweetened condensed milk.
- Next, it’s time to create a layer of chocolate chips. First, sprinkle on the butterscotch chips.
- Sprinkle with semi-sweet chocolate chips.
- Sprinkle on chopped nuts, trying to spread them out as evenly as possible.
- Lastly, add the last little bit of coconut flakes to the top.
- Bake at 350 degrees for 25-30 minutes, or until the top is starting to get golden brown.
- Cool pan on a wire rack for 15 minutes (at least) before removing the squares with the parchment paper.
- Once completely cooled to room temperature, slice into 24 slices and serve the dessert bars or store in an airtight container.
