HELLO DOLLIES
Bar cookies are always brilliant, but these Hello Dollies are extra brilliant because salty Ritz crackers add balance to an otherwise strictly sweet treat.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Line an 8 x 8-inch (20 x 20-cm)or 9 x 9-inch (23 x 23-cm) baking dish with parchment paper.
- In a large bowl, combine the crumbs from 35 smashed crackers and melted butter. Press the mixture into the bottom of the baking dish. Sprinkle the chocolate chips, peanut butter chips,nuts and coconut over the cracker layer. Drizzle the condensed milk over the top, trying to make it reasonably even. I use a spoon and slowly drizzle the milk, spoonful by slow spoonful. Sprinkle the remaining crushed crackers over the top of the milk.
- Bake for about 25 minutes, or until the coconut is golden brown and the edges are nicely toasted. Let the bars cool for at least an hour. Cut into small triangles by first cutting 9 squares, the cutting each square in half on the diagonal to get 18 triangles.Store the bars in the fridge.
Tips:
- Make sure to use fresh ingredients for the best flavor.
- Use a good quality chocolate chips. I recommend using semi-sweet or dark chocolate chips.
- Do not overmix the batter. Overmixing will result in a tough cookie.
- Chill the dough for at least 30 minutes before baking. This will help the cookies hold their shape.
- Be sure to grease or line your baking sheets to prevent the cookies from sticking.
- Bake the cookies until they are just set. Overbaking will result in a dry cookie.
- Let the cookies cool completely on a wire rack before decorating.
