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.

Ingredients

Crust:
1/4 cup granulated sugar
4 tablespoons butter or stick margarine, softened
1 cup all-purpose flour

Topping:
3 large eggs
3/4 cup granulated sugar
2 teaspoons grated lemon rind
1/3 cup fresh lemon juice
3 tablespoons all-purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1/8 teaspoon salt
2 teaspoons powdered sugar (or more)
Preparation
Preheat oven to 350°.

To prepare the crust, beat 1/4 cup granulated sugar and the butter at medium speed of a mixer until creamy. Lightly spoon 1 cup flour into a dry measuring cup; level with a knife. Gradually add 1 cup flour to sugar mixture, beating at low speed until mixture resembles fine crumbs. Gently press mixture into bottom of an 8-inch square baking pan. Bake at 350° for 15 minutes; cool on a wire rack.

To prepare topping, beat eggs at medium speed until foamy. Add 3/4 cup granulated sugar and next 5 ingredients (3/4 cup granulated sugar through salt), and beat until well-blended. Pour mixture over partially baked crust. Bake at 350° for 20 to 25 minutes or until set. Cool on wire rack. Sift powdered sugar evenly over top.
