These are so rich! You only need a bite…yet, you keep going back for more! Layer the toppings or mix them all together. However you top it, it is intensely full of deep, sweet flavors!
Peanutty Dark Chocolate Magic Bars
2 cups (12 full graham crackers) chocolate, honey or cinnamon, crushed into crumbs
1/2 cup margarine or butter, melted
1 14 oz can sweetened condensed milk
1 cup dark chocolate chips
1/2 cup mini semi sweet chips
1/2 cup butterscotch chips
1/2 cup coconut, shredded
1/2 to 1 cup roasted peanuts (or other nuts), whole, halves or broken into pieces
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Lightly grease with spray or Homemade Cake Release, 13 x 9 pan. Place margarine in pan and put in oven to melt, about 3 minutes. If you are using full graham crackers, place them in a freezer plastic bag and crush. My boys love doing this! ~smile~ Put crumbs in pan with melted margarine, stir to coat, then press down with a fork to make a crust covering the bottom of pan.
Spread sweetened condensed milk over crust. Mix 1/2 of each flavor; chips, coconut and peanuts together. Sprinkle over sweetened condensed milk. Add the remainder of chips, coconut and peanuts in layers on the top. Or, mix all together and sprinkle at once. Or, use each ingredient to make layers. Bake in preheated oven 20 to 25 minutes. Let cook completely if you don’t want the crust to crumble. My sons ate it warm, on a plate, with a fork. Even the ones that don’t like coconut and butterscotch loved these bars! Enjoy!
