Ingredients
2cupsgraham cracker crumbs
1/3cupmelted salted butter
114-oz. can sweetened condensed milk
3tablespoongranulated sugar
1cupsemisweet chocolate morsels
2/3cupsweetened flaked coconut
1cupchopped 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!
