The Original Magic Cookie Bar (Dolly Bars)


As a child these were one of my favorite treats. I still love them and they only take about 10 minutes to make. My mum used to make them if she had friends coming over for dinner with children that were fussy eaters and didn't like cheesecake or whatever dessert she was making. My mum called them Dolly Bars.

I found a good recipe for them on the Eagle Brand condensed milk wrapper. Here it is (tweaked a little):

Ingredients
1 cup graham wafer crumbs
1/3 cup melted butter
1 can sweetened condensed milk
1 1/3 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips
1 1/3 cups flaked coconut
1 1/3 chopped pecans

Combine graham crumbs with butter; press evenly onto 8 X 8 inch baking pan. Pour condensed milk evenly over crumbs. Sprinkle with chips, coconut and pecans; press down firmly. Bake in preheated over for 30 minutes or until lightly browned. Cool thoroughly and cut into bars. Store loosely covered at room temperature.
