GRAHAM CRACKER COOKIE BARS
I got this recipe off of the back of a graham cracker box, and I could not believe how yummy they were! I have not made them with plain graham crackers, so I just used my own best judgement in estimating the additions of granulated sugar and cinnamon to compensate.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Butter a 9-by-13-inch baking dish.
- Combine the melted butter and graham cracker crumbs in a small bowl with your hands (the mixture should hold together when squeezed). Pour the mixture into the prepared dish and press it into the bottom in an even layer, using the bottom of a measuring cup to help. Pour the sweetened condensed milk over the crumbs, then sprinkle the chocolate chips, butterscotch chips, pecans and coconut over the milk.
- Bake until the sides are golden brown and begin to pull away from the dish, 30 to 40 minutes. Let cool completely in the dish. Cut into 48 small pieces (they are rich). The cookies can be refrigerated in an airtight container for up to 3 days.
Tips:
- Use a food processor to quickly and easily grind the graham crackers into fine crumbs.
- If you don't have a food processor, you can crush the graham crackers in a resealable plastic bag using a rolling pin.
- Be sure to pack the graham cracker crumbs firmly into the pan so that the crust is nice and compact.
- Don't overbake the cookie bars, or they will become dry and crumbly. The edges should be golden brown and the center should be just set.
- Let the cookie bars cool completely before cutting and serving. This will help them to hold their shape.
- For a richer flavor, use melted butter instead of vegetable oil in the crust.
- Add a teaspoon of vanilla extract to the cookie dough for a classic flavor.
- Sprinkle some chopped nuts or chocolate chips on top of the cookie bars before baking for a delicious variation.
