Total Time 1 hour 45 minutes
Servings 3 dozen

Ingredients

  • 2 cups graham cracker crumbs
  • 1/3 cup melted salted butter
  • 1 14-oz. can sweetened condensed milk
  • 3 tablespoon granulated sugar
  • 1 cup semisweet chocolate morsels
  • 2/3 cup sweetened flaked coconut
  • 1 cup chopped pecans

Instructions

Step 1: Preheat and Prep

  • Turn your oven on to 350°F. While it’s warming up, lightly grease a 13 x 9-inch baking pan. You’re setting the stage for something delicious!

Step 2: Make the Crust

  • In a medium bowl, mix together the first 3 ingredients (you know the ones!). Once combined, press the mixture evenly into the bottom of your prepared pan.
  • Pop it in the oven and bake for 8 minutes. That’s your crunchy base!

Step 3: Layer the Good Stuff

  • Right after you take the crust out (while it’s still hot!), sprinkle on the pecans, chocolate chips, and shredded coconut.
  • Now pour the sweetened condensed milk over everything—nice and slow. No stirring needed here—just let it flow!

Step 4: Bake It All Together

  • Bake the whole pan at 350°F for 20–25 minutes. You’re looking for lightly browned edges and bubbly goodness.
  • Once it’s out of the oven, let it cool on a wire rack for about an hour. Then cut into bars and try not to eat them all at once!
