7 Layer Bars With Pecans (Magic Bars!)
Report
Really quick and easy chocolate pecan bars recipe with a Graham Cracker/Digestive biscuit crust followed by layers of chewy coconut, chocolate and nuts. They taste like you've spent hours making them, but you can pretty much make them one-handed. No bowl required!

Instructions
- Line a 9 inch square or equivalent baking pan with non-stick baking paper and preheat the oven to 350 F / 175C.
- Pour the butter into the bottom of the pan, then sprinkle over the crumbs. Mix around a bit with a metal spoon, then press evenly into the pan.
- Sprinkle over the coconut in an even(ish) layer, then sprinkle over the chocolate chips, followed by the nuts. Finally, pour over the condensed milk.
- Bake for 30 to 35 minutes, until the top is starting to go golden brown.
- Cool in the pan, then lift out and cut into small(ish) squares. Store in an airtight container.

Notes
- I like to make these with pecan nuts, but you could use any kind of unsalted nuts you like, or a mixture of many!
- In fact, these sorts of ‘magic’ bars are very versatile. The amounts don’t really need to be exact. Maybe you’ve got lots of chocolate chips but not so many nuts. No problem – why not add a few pretzels or mixed dried fruit instead?
- Check out the section above in my post to get ideas for even more variations.
- 3 to 4 days in an airtight container at room temperature. Or longer in the fridge.
- Absolutely! Cut into small squares, then freeze on a baking tray. Then transfer to freezer safe containers or bags for at least 3 months.
- When you're in the mood for a small treat, or you need something to take along to a party, just grab them out of the freezer. They won't take very long to defrost!
