Warning! These are very rich tasting so you don't want to cut these into large sized bars.
Magic Cookie Bars
From Southern Living, November 2002
Yield: approximately 30 bars
1/2 cup butter, melted
2 cups graham cracker crumbs
1 (14.5 oz) can sweetened condensed milk
1 cup semisweet chocolate morsels
1 cup butterscotch morsels
1 (7 oz) package sweetened flaked coconut
1 cup chopped walnuts
Stir together melted butter and graham cracker crumbs and press into bottom of a 13 x 9 inch pan.
Pour sweetened condensed milk over crumbs; sprinkle evenly with chocolate and butterscotch morsels, coconut and walnuts. Gently press mixture to a uniform thickness with a fork.
Bake batch at 350 F/176 C for 25 to 30 minutes or until coconut is lightly browned. Cool 45 minutes on a wire rack. Cut into 1 ½ x 2 ½ inch bars.
Tips: mix the sweetened condensed milk with about 1/4 can of milk and drizzle it on last to make bars more moist. (I just pour the condensed milk into a measuring cup and then fill the can up buy about one fourth. Then I stir the milk around the can to get as much of the condensed milk off the sides. I pour this into the measuring cup and mix well before pouring.)
For Bailey’s fans: add 1/2 cup of Bailey’s Irish Cream to the butter before starting the batch. After bars are done, lightly brush them with Bailey’s.
For crust: chocolate graham crackers honey graham crackers, vanilla wafers or Oreo cookie crumbs. Reduce the butter amount as the Oreos are fattier. It might be easier just to use reduced fat Oreos.
Substitute pecans or almonds for the walnuts.
Add marshmallows or another ingredient to make this a 7 Layer Bar.
Use colorful mini candy covered chocolate pieces or red & green M&Ms to make a festive treat. Other times of the year, you could use pastel M&Ms or orange and brown ones for Halloween.
Substitute peanut butter or white chocolate chips for the butterscotch.
Substitute raisins for butterscotch morsels or you can use the raisins to replace the nuts.
