Ingredients

• 2 cups graham cracker crumbs
• 0.5 cups unsalted butter, melted
• 1 can (14 oz) sweetened condensed milk
• 1.5 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips
• 1 cup shredded sweetened coconut
• 1 cup chopped walnuts or pecans
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 1 pinch pinch of sea salt

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a 9x13-inch baking dish with parchment paper, letting the edges hang over for easy removal later.

Step 2

In a medium bowl, combine the graham cracker crumbs and melted butter. Stir until the mixture resembles wet sand.

Step 3

Press the graham cracker mixture firmly into the bottom of the prepared baking dish to form an even crust.

Step 4

Pour the sweetened condensed milk evenly over the crust layer, spreading it gently with a spatula if necessary.

Step 5

Sprinkle the chocolate chips evenly over the condensed milk layer.

Step 6

Add a layer of shredded coconut, spreading it evenly across the dish.

Step 7

Sprinkle the chopped nuts evenly on top of the coconut layer.

Step 8

Drizzle the vanilla extract evenly over the top, then add a small pinch of sea salt for balance.

Step 9

Gently press down on the top layer with your hand or the back of a spatula to help everything stick together.

Step 10

Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown and the center is set.

Step 11

Allow the bars to cool completely in the pan on a wire rack, then refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to firm up.

Step 12

Once chilled, use the parchment paper to lift the bars out of the pan. Slice into 12 squares or bars and serve. Store leftovers in an airtight container for up to a week.
