Cuisine: American
Serves: 16 bars
Ingredients
- 1 cup graham cracker crumbs
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted
- 1 cup sweetened shredded coconut
- 1 cup chocolate chips
- 1 cup butterscotch chips
- 1 can sweetened condensed milk
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a 9x9-inch baking pan with parchment paper, allowing excess paper to hang over the sides for easy removal.
- In a medium mixing bowl, combine the graham cracker crumbs with melted butter. Mix thoroughly until the crumbs are completely moistened and resemble wet sand.
- Press the graham cracker mixture evenly into the bottom of the prepared baking pan, creating a compact and uniform base layer.
- Sprinkle the sweetened shredded coconut evenly over the graham cracker crust, creating the first layer of toppings.
- Distribute the chocolate chips and butterscotch chips uniformly across the coconut layer, ensuring even coverage.
- Slowly and carefully pour the entire can of sweetened condensed milk over the chips and coconut, making sure to cover the entire surface as evenly as possible.
- Place the pan in the preheated oven and bake for 25-30 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown and the top is lightly caramelized.
- Remove from the oven and let the bars cool completely in the pan at room temperature for about 1-2 hours.
- Once cooled, use the parchment paper overhang to lift the bars out of the pan and transfer to a cutting board.
- Cut into 16 even squares using a sharp knife, cleaning the knife between cuts for neat edges.
- Store the bars in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days, or refrigerate for extended freshness.
Tips
- For the most uniform crust, use the back of a measuring cup or flat-bottomed glass to press the graham cracker mixture firmly and evenly into the pan.
- Make sure your sweetened condensed milk is evenly distributed to ensure each bar has the perfect caramelized texture.
- Allow the bars to cool completely before cutting to achieve clean, precise edges. Chilling them in the refrigerator for 30 minutes can make cutting even easier.
- For extra flavor, try toasting the coconut before adding it to the layer for a deeper, nuttier taste.
- Experiment with different chip combinations - try adding some chopped nuts or white chocolate chips for a unique twist.
- Line your pan with parchment paper for effortless removal and easy cleanup.
- Store in an airtight container to maintain the bars' moisture and texture. They actually taste even better the next day!
