No Fuss Bar Cookies

These easy, delicious bars are similar to the 7-layer Bar recipe most folks are familiar with, but they are not quite so over-the-top.  However, they are just about as easy to make.  Stir ‘em up, press them into the pan, bake, eat.  They freeze well too.  I used store-bought graham cracker crumbs, so I didn’t even have to crumble the crackers – this recipe is really no-fuss, perfect for picnics and barbeques.  

                          No Fuss Bar Cookies

  2              Cups  Graham Cracker Crumbs -- about 24 squares (6 ounces)

  1              Cup  Chocolate Chips -- 6 ounces

  1              Cup  Coconut -- flaked (4 1/2 ounces)

     3/4       Cup  Walnuts -- chopped (3 ounces)

  14            Ounces  Sweetened Condensed Milk

Preheat oven to 350°.  Combine crumbs, chips, coconut and walnuts in medium bowl; toss to blend.  Add milk; mix until blended.

Spread batter into greased 13 x 9" baking pan.  Bake 15-18 minutes or until edges are golden brown.  Let pan stand on wire rack until completely cooled.  Cut into 2 1/4" squares.
