Makes one 9x13 pan

Ingredients

• Crust:
• 1 1/2 – 1 3/4 cups graham cracker crumbs
• 1/2 cup melted butter
• 1/2 cup sugar (I use less than this)
• Filling:
• 1 can (14 ounces) sweetened condensed milk
• 1 package (7 ounces) shredded coconut
• Topping:
• 12 ounces semi-sweet chocolate chips (use less if you’re not a chocolate lover!)
• 1 Tablespoon peanut butter

Preparation

Step 1

Directions:
For the Crust: Mix graham cracker crumbs, butter and sugar together and press into a 9×13 pan. Bake at 350 degrees for 10 minutes.
For the Filling: Mix the condensed milk and coconut together and carefully spread over hot crust. Bake for another 15 minutes. Cool.
For the Topping: In a microwave-safe bowl, combine the chocolate chips and peanut butter. Microwave until melted, stirring every 20-30 seconds. Spread on top of cooled bars. Chill until set.


That’s it!

The only bad thing about taking these bars to holiday parties it that you’ll rarely ever have leftovers
