Looking for an easy, crowd-pleasing dessert you can throw together in minutes? Magic Bars are the ultimate one-pan, no-fuss treat loaded with layers of chocolate, butterscotch, coconut, and nuts, all drenched in sweetened condensed milk for that perfect gooey bite.
Preheat & Prep: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a 9x13-inch baking dish with parchment paper and lightly coat with nonstick spray.
Make the Crust: In a medium bowl, mix melted butter and graham cracker crumbs until well combined. Press the mixture firmly and evenly into the bottom of the prepared pan to form a crust.
Layer the Goodies: Sprinkle chocolate chips, butterscotch chips, shredded coconut, and pecans evenly over the crust.
Add the Magic: Pour the sweetened condensed milk evenly over the entire surface. If needed, use the back of a spoon or a butter knife to gently spread it to the edges. Optional: Sprinkle with sea salt for a sweet-salty touch.
Bake: Bake for 25 minutes, or until the top is set and the edges are golden brown.
Cool & Cut: Let bars cool completely in the pan before lifting them out using the parchment paper. Cut into 20 squares and enjoy!
Storage
Store bars in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days.
