Welcome to Day 9 of my annual Christmas Rosiethon.
Today, our sweet treat is Magic Cookie Bars, a quick, easy, and delicious layered cookie casserole.
Magic Cookie Bars
1 stick unsalted butter
1 ½ cups graham cracker crumbs (That’s one wrapped package out of the box.)
1 can sweetened condensed milk
1 cup chocolate chips
4 ounces coconut
1 cup chopped pecans
Heat oven to 350 degrees.
Melt butter in a 9- x 13-inch pan.
Sprinkle graham crackers crumbs over butter.
Pour milk over crumbs.
Top with chips, coconuts, and nuts.
Bake 25-30 minutes.
Let cool and slice into bars.
Note:
Do not use generic chocolate chips. They are inferior to Ghirardelli or Nestle’s.
When spreading out the crumbs in the butter, it helps to use a mini-rolling pin.

Last year for our readers, Day 9 produced two toffee recipes.
