Ingredients

• 1 ½ cups Graham cracker crumbs
• ½ cup Unsalted butter, melted
• 1 can (14 oz) Sweetened condensed milk
• 1 cup Semisweet chocolate chips (or swap with white chocolate, caramel bits, etc.)
• 1 cup Shredded coconut (optional)
• 1 cup Chopped nuts (optional)
• Optional toppings: Powdered sugar, chocolate drizzle, or whipped cream

 

 

Instructions

Preheat & Prep:
Set your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9×13-inch baking pan or line it with parchment paper for easy removal.

Make the Crust:
Mix graham cracker crumbs and melted butter in a bowl until well combined. Press firmly into the bottom of the prepared pan.

Layer It Up:
Pour sweetened condensed milk evenly over the crust. Sprinkle chocolate chips (or your preferred mix-ins) across the surface. Add shredded coconut and chopped nuts if using.

Bake to Perfection:
Bake for 25–30 minutes, or until the edges turn golden brown. The center will stay soft and gooey—exactly as intended.

Cool & Serve:
Allow the bars to cool fully in the pan on a wire rack. Slice into squares or bars. For a fancy finish, top with powdered sugar or drizzle with melted chocolate.

 

 

Tips for the Best Results

For crispier edges, bake a few extra minutes.

Swap graham crackers with crushed digestive biscuits or Oreos for variation.

Refrigerate before cutting for cleaner slices.
