Ingredients
- 1 box of graham crackers
- 1 cup of unsalted butter
- 1 cup of packed brown sugar
- 1 cup of sweetened condensed milk
- 2 cups of semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 1 cup of chopped nuts (optional)
- 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grab a baking dish and coat it with some non-stick spray or line it with parchment paper for easy cleanup.
- Crush the graham crackers into crumbs. You can do this by placing them in a ziplock bag and smashing them with a rolling pin, or just pulse them in a food processor. Whichever works best for you!
- In a saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat. Once it’s melted, stir in the brown sugar and let it simmer for about 2-3 minutes until it’s all combined and bubbling nicely.
- Now, stir in the sweetened condensed milk and vanilla extract. Keep stirring until you’ve got a smooth mix.
- In your prepared baking dish, layer half of the graham cracker crumbs evenly on the bottom.
- Pour half of the butter mixture over the graham cracker layer, spreading it out with a spatula.
- Sprinkle half of the chocolate chips and nuts (if you’re using them) evenly over that. Repeat this step with the remaining graham cracker crumbs, butter mixture, chocolate chips, and nuts.
- Bake in the preheated oven for about 25-30 minutes or until the top is golden brown and bubbly.
- Once baked, let it cool completely before cutting into squares to serve. Enjoy those delicious chewy bars with your loved ones!
