Ingredients

Scale

Crust

  • 1ยฝ cups graham cracker crumbs
  • ยฝ cup salted butter, melted

Layers

  • 14 ounce can sweetened condensed milk
  • 1 cup butterscotch chips
  • 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
  • 1โ…“ cup flaked coconut
  • 1 cup chopped pecans


Instructions

  1. Preheat and Prepare Pan: Preheat your oven to 350ยฐF. Lightly coat a 9×13-inch baking pan with nonstick spray and line it with parchment paper, allowing the paper to hang over the edges for easy lifting of the bars later.
  2. Make Crust: In a bowl, combine the graham cracker crumbs with the melted butter. Press this mixture firmly and evenly into the bottom of the prepared pan to form the crust.
  3. Add Sweetened Condensed Milk: Drizzle the sweetened condensed milk evenly over the graham cracker crust in the pan.
  4. Layer Remaining Ingredients: Sprinkle the butterscotch chips, semi-sweet chocolate chips, flaked coconut, and chopped pecans evenly over the sweetened condensed milk layer, pressing down gently with a fork to compact the layers slightly.
  5. Bake: Place the pan in the preheated oven and bake for 20 to 25 minutes, until the top turns lightly golden.
  6. Cool and Cut: While still warm, loosen the edges of the bars from the pan using the parchment paper overhang. Let cool completely on a wire rack before cutting into 24 bars with a sharp knife.

Notes

  • For clean slices, allow bars to cool completely before cutting.
  • You can substitute walnuts or almonds for pecans if desired.
  • Store bars in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days.
  • For a nut-free version, omit the pecans and add extra coconut or chocolate chips.
  • Make sure to press the crust firmly into the pan for a sturdy base.
