Prep Time 15 minutes
Cook Time 25 minutes
Total Time 40 minutes
Servings 12

Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup butter melted
  • 1 1/2 cups graham cracker crumbs
  • 2 cups walnut halves chopped
  • 2 1/2 cups semi sweet chocolate chips or 1-12 ounce package
  • 3 cups shredded sweetened coconut
  • 1 14 ounce can sweetened condensed milk

Instructions

  • Pour melted butter into a 9 x 13 pan.
  • Sprinkle in the graham cracker crumbs over the melted butter.   Press the graham cracker crumb/butter mixture into the bottom of the pan to form a crust.
  • Sprinkle walnut pieces onto the crust.  Next, sprinkle the chocolate chips over the walnuts.
  • Then sprinkle the coconut over the chocolate chips.
  • Open can of sweetened condensed milk, pour over the coconut, covering as much of the coconut as possible.  The parts of the coconut without the sweetened condensed milk coating tend to burn.
  • Bake at 350 degrees for 25 minutes.
  • Allow to cool.  It takes quite a bit of time to properly cool, however these are delightful melty and a little bit warm.

Notes

Feel free to switch up the nuts and try pecans instead of walnuts.
