Hello Dolly Bars

My sister TMP made these for our little graduation shindig at home last Saturday. My in-laws loved these and as my husband is, you know, an in-law he loved them too and insisted that we get the recipe. So here it is, dear Robber, for you.

From somewhere, didn't ask TMP where she got them.

Ingredients:

1 1/2 C. (1 stick) salted butter, melted
1/2 C. graham cracker crumbs (ca. 1 1/2 packages)
1 tsp. cinnamon

2 C. chocolate chips (replace 1 c. with butterscotch or other chips, if desired)
1 1/2 C. chopped pecans, lightly toasted
1 1/2 C. sweetened shredded coconut

1 14-oz. can sweetened condensed milk



Directions:


1. Mix the graham cracker crumbs and cinnamon with the butter and press into the bottom of the pan. 

2. Layer the chips, nuts, and coconut on top of the crust. Pour the sweetened condensed milk evenly over the lot. 

3. Bake at 350 for approx. 30 minutes, until nicely browned and a bit bubbly. Cool completely before cutting.



Yield: This quantity will make an 8"x8" pan of thick bars or a 9"x13" pan of thinner bars.
