Here’s the classic Magic Cookie Bars recipe (also called 7-Layer Bars)—sweet, chewy, crunchy, and incredibly easy 🍫🥥✨
🍪 Magic Cookie Bars (7-Layer Bars)
Ingredients (9×13-inch pan)
- 1/2 cup (1 stick) butter, melted
- 1 1/2 cups graham cracker crumbs
- 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 1 cup butterscotch chips (or more chocolate chips)
- 1 cup shredded sweetened coconut
- 1 cup chopped nuts (walnuts or pecans, optional)
- 1 can (14 oz / 397 g) sweetened condensed milk
Instructions
- Preheat oven
- Preheat to 350°F (175°C).
- Grease a 9×13-inch baking pan.
- Make crust
- Pour melted butter into the pan.
- Sprinkle graham cracker crumbs evenly over the butter and gently press down.
- Layer ingredients
- Evenly sprinkle chocolate chips, butterscotch chips, coconut, and nuts over the crust (in that order).
- Add condensed milk
- Slowly drizzle condensed milk evenly over the top—cover as much as possible.
- Bake
- Bake 25–30 minutes, until edges are golden and center is set.
- Cool & cut
- Cool completely before cutting into bars (this helps them set).
Tips
- Don’t stir the layers—just stack them.
- For clean cuts, chill bars before slicing.
- Swap flavors easily: peanut butter chips, white chocolate, or toffee bits all work great.
