Ingredients
To make these delectable Magic Cookie Bars, you will need the following ingredients:
- 1 cup unsalted butter, melted
- 1 ½ cups graham cracker crumbs
- 1 cup sweetened shredded coconut
- 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 1 cup chopped nuts (walnuts or pecans work well)
- 1 can (14 ounces) sweetened condensed milk
Instructions
Follow these straightforward steps to prepare Magic Cookie Bars:
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9×13 inch baking dish or line it with parchment paper for easy removal.
- In a mixing bowl, combine the melted butter and graham cracker crumbs. Stir until well mixed, then pack the mixture firmly into the bottom of the prepared baking dish to form a crust.
- Evenly sprinkle the shredded coconut over the crust. Follow with the chocolate chips and chopped nuts, spreading them out to ensure even coverage.
- Drizzle the sweetened condensed milk over the top, ensuring that it covers the entire surface to help bind the ingredients together.
- Bake in the preheated oven for about 25-30 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden and the center is set. Keep an eye on the bars to avoid over-baking.
- Remove from the oven and let the bars cool completely in the pan on a wire rack before cutting them into squares or rectangles.
Once cooled, enjoy your homemade Magic Cookie Bars. They also store well in an airtight container, so you can enjoy them for days after baking. Delightful and easy to make, these treats are perfect for chocolate lovers and will become a staple in your dessert repertoire.
