This is a place for me to put my recipes that I grew up with or have newly discovered.
I have a cute little family that I cook for pretty much every day and
I want to start collecting all my recipes in one place, so here it is!

Magic Cookie Bars

After posting homemade sweetened condensed milk, I figured I ought to add the recipe that inspired it in the first place!  So here is one of my husband's all time favorite desserts, and fortunately it's one of my favorites too! 

Magic Cookie Bars
1/2 cup butter
1 1/2 cups graham cracker crumbs
2 TBLS sugar
1-1 1/2 cups chocolate chips
1 cup chopped nuts (pecans are my favorite-though my husband doesn't like nuts, so half of the batch has nuts and half doesn't)
1 1/2 cups shredded coconut
1 can sweetened condensed milk (or 3/4 -1 cup of homemade sweetened condensed milk)

In 9x13 pan melt butter.  Add cracker crumbs and sugar-stirring together with a fork and then pressing down for your crust.  Top crust evenly with chocolate chips, nuts, & coconut.  Pour milk evenly on top.  Bake at 350 degrees for 25 minutes.
