Ingredients

Scale
  • 1/2 cup (113g) unsalted butter, melted
  • 1 1/2 cups (150g) graham cracker crumbs
  • 1 cup (175g) semi-sweet chocolate chips
  • 1 cup (120g) chopped walnuts
  • 1 cup (90g) sweetened shredded coconut
  • 1 can (14 oz/397g) sweetened condensed milk

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9×13 inch (23×33 cm) baking pan.
  2. Pour melted butter into the prepared pan and spread evenly.
  3. Sprinkle graham cracker crumbs over the butter and press down lightly to form a crust.
  4. Layer chocolate chips evenly over the crust.
  5. Sprinkle chopped walnuts over the chocolate chips.
  6. Top with shredded coconut, spreading evenly.
  7. Pour sweetened condensed milk evenly over the entire surface.
  8. Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until edges are golden brown and center is set.
  9. Remove from oven and let cool completely in the pan on a wire rack.
  10. Once cooled, cut into 16 bars and serve.

Notes

  • Cooling is Key: Ensure the bars are completely cool before cutting to achieve clean slices and a perfectly set texture.
  • Customization: Feel free to swap walnuts for pecans, or use different types of chocolate chips (milk, dark, or white).
  • Storage: Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3-4 days, or refrigerate for up to a week.
