  • Total Time: 40 minutes
  • Yield: 12 servings 1x
  • Diet: Vegetarian

Description

Indulge in gooey layers of chocolate, butterscotch, coconut, and nuts over a graham cracker crust, all held together by sweetened condensed milk. Perfect for gatherings and parties!


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1/2 cup (1 stick) unsalted butter, melted
  • 1 1/2 cups graham cracker crumbs
  • 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
  • 1 cup butterscotch chips
  • 1 cup sweetened shredded coconut
  • 1/2 cup chopped walnuts or pecans
  • 1 (14 oz) can sweetened condensed milk

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Lightly grease a 9×13-inch baking pan or line it with parchment paper. Pour melted butter evenly across the bottom of the pan. Sprinkle graham cracker crumbs over the butter and press down to form a crust.
  2. Sprinkle chocolate chips over the crust, followed by butterscotch chips, chopped nuts, and sweetened shredded coconut.
  3. Pour sweetened condensed milk evenly over all the layers, ensuring to cover most of the toppings.
  4. Bake for 25–30 minutes until the top is lightly golden and bubbly. Let cool completely before slicing, preferably chilling in the fridge for an hour.

Notes

Store bars in an airtight container at room temperature for up to a week, or freeze for longer storage. Experiment with different variations by mixing in your favorite ingredients.
