Magic Cookie Bars

Magic Cookie Bars

***Susan's note: I had some butterscotch chips I wanted to use up, hence this recipe. Yum! They're really good. Put foil in your pan, set the bars in the fridge to set up after cooling a little bit, and then take the foil out and cut them with a big butcher knife. Also - I hate coconut, so I used chopped dried cranberries instead. Yum!

Ingredients
1/2 cup butter, melted
2 cups graham cracker crumbs
1 (14 1/2-ounce) can sweetened condensed milk
1 cup semisweet chocolate morsels
1 cup butterscotch morsels
1 (7-ounce) package sweetened flaked coconut
1 cup chopped walnuts
Preparation
Stir together melted butter and graham cracker crumbs, and press into bottom of a 13- x 9-inch pan.

Pour sweetened condensed milk over crumbs; sprinkle evenly with chocolate and butterscotch morsels, coconut, and walnuts. Gently press mixture to a uniform thickness with a fork.

Bake at 350° for 25 to 30 minutes or until coconut is lightly browned. Cool 45 minutes on a wire rack. Cut into 1 1/2- x 2 1/2-inch bars.
