Decadent Layered Magic Bars: A Dessert Delight

Ingredients

- 1/2 cup butter (1 stick)
- 1 1/2 cups graham cracker crumbs
- 1 cup shredded coconut
- 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 1 cup butterscotch chips
- 1 (14 oz) can sweetened condensed milk
- 1 cup chopped nuts (walnuts or pecans)

Instructions

1. Preheat the Oven
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) to ensure even baking.

2. Prepare the Baking Pan
- Grease a 9x13-inch baking dish with butter or non-stick spray.

3. Melt the Butter
- Melt the 1/2 cup butter in a small saucepan over low heat or in the microwave until fully liquid.

4. Create the Crust Layer
- In a medium bowl, combine the melted butter with the graham cracker crumbs. Mix until crumbs are evenly coated.
- Press the crumb mixture firmly into the bottom of the greased baking dish to form the crust.

5. Layer the Ingredients
- Evenly sprinkle the shredded coconut over the graham cracker crust.
- Over the coconut, layer the semi-sweet chocolate chips followed by the butterscotch chips.
- Next, distribute the chopped nuts evenly on top of the chips.

6. Add the Sweetened Condensed Milk
- Pour the can of sweetened condensed milk evenly over the entire layered mixture, ensuring it covers every corner and edge.

7. Bake the Bars
- Place the baking dish in the preheated oven and bake for approximately 25 minutes, or until the top begins to turn a light golden brown.

8. Cool and Serve
- Remove from the oven and let cool in the dish on a wire rack for at least 1 hour or until fully set.
- Once cooled, cut into bars and serve.
