Magic Cookie Bars


I've been making these delicious Bar Cookies since the beginning of time- well, at least the beginning of my marriage.  I love the combination of chocolate, graham, coconut and nuts and, oh man, the sweetened condensed milk.  That stuff is delicious!   Best of all, they are so fast and easy.
Magic Cookie Bars
1/2 cup butter, melted
1 1/2 cup graham cracker crumbs
2 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips
1 1/3 cups coconut
1 rounded cup chopped pecans
1 can sweetened condensed milk
Heat oven to 325. 
Mix together the butter and graham cracker crumbs.  Press into a 13x9 pan.  Sprinkle the chocolate chips, coconut, and pecans over the top.  Pour the can of sweetened condensed milk over all and spread evenly.  Bake in the preheated oven for about 25-30 minutes.  When cool, cut into bars.  These are a great make ahead recipe because they freeze well.  They make a great Family Home Evening treat!
