Ingredients
  

  • 1 ⅔ cups graham cracker crumbs Crushed crackers forming the base
  • ½ cup unsalted butter melted Adds richness to the crust
  • 1 ⅛ cups semi-sweet chocolate chips Sweet and rich topping
  • 1 ⅛ cups butterscotch chips Adds a buttery sweet flavor
  • 1 ⅛ cups chopped pecans Crunchy texture and nutty flavor
  • 1 ⅛ cups shredded coconut Sweet and chewy addition
  • 1 can 14 ounces sweetened condensed milk Binding and sweetens the layers

Method
 

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (180°C). Line a 9x13-inch baking pan with parchment paper, ensuring it hangs over the sides for easy bar removal.
  2. In a medium bowl, combine the graham cracker crumbs with the melted butter. Stir until the crumbs are evenly moistened. Press this mixture into the bottom of the pan to form an even layer.
  3. Evenly sprinkle the semi-sweet chocolate chips and butterscotch chips over the crust. Then, distribute the chopped pecans and shredded coconut over the chips.
  4. Drizzle the sweetened condensed milk over the entire surface, ensuring it covers all toppings.
  5. Bake in the oven for 25-30 minutes or until the top is lightly golden brown. Allow to cool completely before cutting into squares.
