  • Total Time: 40 minutes
  • Yield: 12 bars

Ingredients

1 1/2 cups graham cracker crumbs

1/2 cup melted butter

1 cup semisweet chocolate chips

1 cup coconut flakes

1/2 cup chopped walnuts

1 can sweetened condensed milk

Instructions

  • Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9×13-inch baking pan.

  • In a bowl, mix the graham cracker crumbs and melted butter until combined.

  • Press the crumb mixture evenly into the bottom of the prepared pan to form the crust.

  • Layer the chocolate chips, coconut flakes, and chopped walnuts evenly over the crust.

  • Pour the sweetened condensed milk evenly over the entire pan, covering all the ingredients.

  • Bake for 25–30 minutes or until the top is golden brown and the edges are bubbly.

  • Let cool completely before cutting into bars.

Notes

  • For a nut-free version, replace the walnuts with sunflower or pumpkin seeds.

  • Add white chocolate or butterscotch chips to the layers for an extra sweet twist.

  • You can mix in dried cranberries or raisins for a burst of tart sweetness.

  • For a spiced flavor, add a pinch of cinnamon or nutmeg to the graham cracker crust.

  • Use gluten-free graham crackers if you’d like a gluten-free option.
