Ingredients
Scale
Crust
- 1 ½ cups graham cracker crumbs
- ½ cup melted butter
Toppings
- 1 (14 ounce) can Eagle Brand Sweetened Condensed Milk
- 2 cups semisweet chocolate morsels
- 1 â…“ cups flaked coconut
- 1 cup chopped nuts
Instructions
- Prepare the crust: In a mixing bowl, combine the graham cracker crumbs and melted butter until the mixture is well blended. Press this mixture evenly into the bottom of a 9×13-inch baking dish to form the crust.
- Add the toppings: Pour the sweetened condensed milk evenly over the graham cracker crust. Then sprinkle the semisweet chocolate morsels, flaked coconut, and chopped nuts evenly over the top.
- Set toppings: Gently press the toppings down firmly with a fork to help them stick together and create an even surface.
- Bake: Place the baking dish in a preheated oven at 350°F (175°C) and bake for about 25 minutes or until the edges are lightly browned and bubbly.
- Cool and serve: Remove the bars from the oven and allow them to cool completely in the pan. Once cooled, cut into 36 bars or diamond shapes and serve.
Notes
- Ensure the bars are completely cooled before cutting to prevent crumbling.
- You can substitute chopped nuts with your favorite variety or omit if allergic.
- For a twist, try adding white chocolate chips or dried fruit along with the classic toppings.
- Store bars in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days or refrigerate for longer freshness.
