Magic Cookie Bars

Magic Cookie Bars

My improved take on the classic magic cookie bars (also known as 7 layer bars).

Ingredients

  • 1 ½ cups graham cracker crumbs
  • ½ cup (1 stick) butter, melted
  • 1 14 oz can sweetened condensed milk
  • 1 ½ cup chocolate chips
  • ½ cup butterscotch chips
  • 1 ½ cups unsweetened coconut chips (or sweetened flaked coconut)
  • 1 cup chopped pecans

Directions

  1. 1

    Preheat oven to 350° F. Prepare a 9x13 inch pan by lining with parchment paper or spraying with cooking spray.

  2. 2

    In a mixing bowl, combine the graham cracker crumbs and melted butter. Stir until combined and gently press into the bottom of the prepared baking pan.

  3. 3

    Evenly drizzle about half the can of sweetened condensed milk over the crust.

  4. 4

    Sprinkle the 1 cup of the chocolate chips, ½ cup of the pecans, 1/4 cup butterscotch chips, and all of the coconut over the sweetened condensed milk layer. Then add the remaining ½ cup chocolate chips, 1/4 cup butterscotch chips, and ½ cup pecans. Pour the remaining sweetened condensed milk evenly over all ingredients.

  5. 5

    Bake in preheated oven for approximately 25-30 minutes until the coconut is a light golden brown and the middle is set. Let cool before cutting into bars.
