→ Main Ingredients

01 - 1 cup of chopped nuts
02 - 1 ⅓ cups of shredded coconut
03 - 2 cups of semisweet chocolate chips
04 - 1 (14 oz) can of sweetened condensed milk (Eagle Brand)
05 - ½ cup melted butter
06 - 1 ½ cups crushed graham crackers

# Steps:

01 - Turn on your oven to 350°F (175°C). For glass dishes, go with 325°F (165°C). Spray a 9×13-inch dish lightly with nonstick spray.
02 - In a mixing bowl, stir the crushed graham crackers together with melted butter until it all sticks together. Press the mix down evenly along the bottom of the greased baking dish.
03 - Drizzle the condensed milk carefully over the cracker base. Spread the chocolate chips, coconut, and nuts over the top. Use a fork to lightly press everything into place.
04 - Stick the baking dish into the oven and cook for about 25 minutes, or until the edges have a light golden color.
05 - Leave the bars to cool down completely in the pan. Slice them into 36 squares or diamonds once they’re fully cooled. Great for sharing or indulging yourself!

# Helpful Notes:

01 - Keep these bars sealed in an airtight container. They’ll last 4 days at room temp or up to a week in the fridge.
02 - You can freeze them for as long as 3 months. Wrap them first in plastic, then put them in a freezer-safe container or bag.
03 - Bring frozen or chilled bars to room temperature before eating to enjoy the best texture.
