Aka magic cookie bars or hello dolly bars, these thick, chewy bars combine chocolate chips, butterscotch chips, coconut, and walnuts on top of a buttery graham cracker crust for the ultimate cookie bar.

Ingredients
 

  • ½ cup unsalted butter melted
  • 1 ½ cups graham cracker crumbs
  • 1 cup coconut flakes or shredded coconut
  • 1 ½ cups semi-sweet chocolate chips
  • 1 cup butterscotch chips
  • 14 ounce sweetened condensed milk
  • 1 cup chopped walnuts

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350℉. Line a 9x13 baking pan with parchment paper or coat with non-stick spray and set aside.
  • Use a fork to combine melted butter and graham cracker crumbs. Press firmly into an even layer in the bottom of the pan (an offset spatula is helpful).
  • Top with the coconut, chocolate chips, butterscotch chips, and walnuts. Drizzle sweetened condensed milk over the top as evenly as possible.
  • Bake for 22-28 mins, or until edges are lightly golden brown.
  • Allow the bars to cool fully in the pan before removing and slicing (at least 3 hours).

Notes

  • I use and recommend Eagle brand sweetened condensed milk.
  • You can crush graham crackers in a food processor to make fine crumbs or buy a box of pre-crushed graham cracker crumbs.
  • Either salted butter or unsalted butter can be used.
  • For best results use a metal baking pan. However, if you do use a glass pan you will need to reduce the temperature to 325℉.
  • For really clean cuts refrigerate the bars for an hour or so before slicing.
  • Store bars in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days, in the fridge for up to a week, or in the freezer for up to 2 months. Separate layers with a sheet of parchment.
