Ingredients
- 2 cups graham cracker crushed
- 10 Tbsp. butter melted, salted
- 1 cup pecans chopped
- 1 cup chocolate chips semi-sweet
- 1 ½ cups sweetened coconut flakes
- 14 oz sweetened condensed milk
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Line a 9” x 13” glass baking dish with parchment paper that overhangs the edge of the dish. Butter the parchment paper.
- Crush the graham crackers in a large food storage bag. This can be done by hand or with a rolling pin, just be careful not to puncture the bag. Or you can use graham cracker crumbs if your store carries them.
- Measure out 2 cups of the crumbs and pour them into the 9” x 13” glass baking dish. Add the melted butter to the dish and mix well.
- Then press it down evenly with your hands.
- Sprinkle the chopped pecans evenly across the top of the graham crackers.
- Sprinkle the chocolate chips evenly across the top.
- Sprinkle the coconut evenly across the top.
- Pour a small stream of the sweetened, condensed milk over the top in a grid pattern so that the milk is evenly distributed across the top.
- Bake for 20-25 minutes. Check at 20 minutes and stop baking when the coconut on the edges is golden brown. Allow to cool for an hour before cutting and serving. Cut the bars into a 4 x 6 grid to yield 24 hello dolly bars. If you want larger or smaller bars, then cut to your liking.
Notes
- Storage Info
- On the Counter
- Let the Hello Dolly Bars cool fully before storing them to avoid sogginess. Keep them in a closed container to maintain their freshness. Put paper between layers to prevent sticking. Keep the container in a cool, dry place away from sunlight to last up to a week.
- In The Freezer
- To keep the bars longer, you can freeze them. Wrap each bar in plastic or foil, then put them in a freezer bag or box and they will be good for 2-3 months. Write the date on it to know when you froze them. To eat, thaw them out of the freezer for a few hours; don’t use the microwave because it could change their taste and feel.
