Ingredients

  • 2 cups graham cracker crumbs
  • ½ cup butter, melted
  • ¼ cup white sugar
  • 2 cups flaked coconut
  • 1 (14 ounce) can sweetened condensed milk
  • ½ cup chopped pecans
  • 1 (8 ounce) chocolate candy bar, chopped
  • 3 tablespoons creamy peanut butter

Directions

Step 1
Preheat an oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease a 9×13-inch baking dish.

Step 2
Mix the graham cracker crumbs, butter, and sugar in a bowl. Press the mixture into the prepared baking dish to form a crust. Combine the coconut, sweetened condensed milk, and pecans in another bowl until well mixed. Spread coconut mixture over the cracker crust.

Step 3
Bake in the preheated oven until set, about 15 minutes. Set aside to cool completely, about 1 hour.

Step 4
Melt the chocolate bar and peanut butter in a small saucepan over very low heat, cooking and stirring until smooth, about 2 minutes. Spread the chocolate mixture evenly over the cooled coconut bars. Cool until set, about 15 minutes. Cut into bars before serving.
