Ingredients
  

Crust

  • Graham Cracker Crumbs 1 ½ cups: Forms a firm, buttery base for the bars.
  • Melted Butter ½ cup: Binds the crumbs together, creating a rich foundation.

Sweet Layer

  • Sweetened Condensed Milk 1 can, 15 oz: Adds sweetness and helps hold the layers together.

Chocolate and Chips

  • Peanut Butter Chips ½ cup: Brings a nutty, creamy flavor.
  • Milk Chocolate or Semi-Sweet Chips ½ cup: Provides a rich chocolate taste.
  • White Chocolate Chips ½ cup: Adds sweetness and a smooth texture.
  • Butterscotch Chips ½ cup: Enhances the bars with a warm caramel-like flavor.

Topping

  • Coconut Flakes or Sweetened Shredded Coconut 1–1 ½ cups: Gives a chewy texture and a tropical hint.

Instructions
 

Preheat the Oven

  • Set your oven to 350°F to ensure even baking.

Prepare the Crust

  • Melt ½ cup butter using a microwave or in a small saucepan over low heat.
  • Spread 1 ½ cups graham cracker crumbs evenly across the bottom of a 9×13-inch pan.
  • Pour the melted butter over the crumbs, then use a fork to press and compact the crust so it holds together.

Add the Layers

  • Sprinkle 2 cups of assorted chocolate and butterscotch morsels evenly over the crust.
  • Pour 1 can (15 oz) sweetened condensed milk over the morsels, ensuring full coverage.

Top with Coconut

  • Spread coconut flakes or shredded coconut (1–1 ½ cups) over the condensed milk, covering the entire surface.

Bake to Perfection

  • Place the pan in the oven and bake for 25 minutes.
  • The edges should turn golden brown, and the center should be firm, not jiggly.

Cool and Serve

  • Allow the bars to cool completely before cutting them into squares.
  • Enjoy as a chewy, layered dessert perfect for any occasion.
