These Easy 7 Layer Bars, also known as magic cookie bars or hello dolly bars, are a delightful treat featuring layers of chocolate chips, butterscotch chips, coconut, and walnuts on a buttery graham cracker crust. Chewy, sweet, and utterly delicious!

Ingredients

Graham Cracker Crust:

  • ½ cup unsalted butter, melted
  • 1 ½ cups graham cracker crumbs

Layers:

  • 1 cup coconut flakes or shredded coconut
  • 1 ½ cups semi-sweet chocolate chips
  • 1 cup butterscotch chips
  • 14 ounces sweetened condensed milk
  • 1 cup chopped walnuts

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven: Preheat the oven to 350℉. Line a 9×13 baking pan with parchment paper or non-stick spray.
  2. Prepare the crust: Mix melted butter and graham cracker crumbs, press into the pan firmly.
  3. Add layers: Sprinkle coconut, chocolate chips, butterscotch chips, and walnuts over the crust. Drizzle sweetened condensed milk on top.
  4. Bake: Bake for 22-28 minutes until edges are golden brown.
  5. Cool and slice: Let the bars cool completely in the pan for at least 3 hours before slicing.

Notes

  • I recommend using Eagle Brand sweetened condensed milk for best results.
  • You can crush graham crackers in a food processor or buy pre-crushed crumbs.
  • Both salted and unsalted butter work well in this recipe.
  • For clean cuts, refrigerate the bars before slicing.
  • Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days, in the fridge for up to a week, or freeze for up to 2 months. Separate layers with parchment paper.
