The ever popular Magic Cookie Bars, aka Seven Layer Bars are a favorite of many because it has all sorts of flavors going on and its easy to make. The one thing about the bars is that they are so sweet and rich, a little goes a long way. To make them easier to eat in just the right portion, I prepared them in lined mini muffin pans. There's less clean up and you can package them up right after they're cooled.

1 1/2 cups graham cracker crumbs
1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted
1 cup chopped walnuts
3/4 cup semisweet chocolate chips
3/4 cup butterscotch chips
1 1/2 cups flaked coconut
1 1/3 cups sweetened condensed milk
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Line a mini muffin pan with liners and set aside.Combine the melted butter and graham cracker crumbs in a bowl. Place a heaping teaspoon of the graham cracker mixture into the bottom of each lined mini muffin tin.
Combine the nuts, chips and coconut in a large bowl. Sprinkle a bit of this mixture over the graham cracker crumbs in the mini muffin tins.
Carefully drizzle the milk over the top of each mini muffin tin.
Bake 10-15 minutes or until lightly brown on top. Cool and remove from mini muffin pan.
Love this idea! Will be adding this to my list of things to make this week.
ReplyDeleteWhat a smart idea to make these in a muffin tin! They look so delicious, and I am sure I'd be enjoying more than one while packaging them. :)
ReplyDeleteHi, is the coconut sweet or unsweetened?
ReplyDeleteEverything you make is delicious, thanks for sharing your truffles with us. Hope to get together again soon.
ReplyDeleteHi Sandrine! I used sweetened coconut but you can use unsweetened too since there's enough sugar from the condensed milk.
ReplyDeleteThat is an excellent idea!! I make those bars ALL the time cuz they are soooo easy!! Perfect for Santa.
ReplyDeleteThanks for posting.

This looks so yummy! Totally my kind of treat. Can you tell me approx how many it would make? Also do you fill to the top with the condensed milk? Any chance you could ballpark an amount for me per cookie bite? A tbsp or more? Thanks for the great recipes.
ReplyDeleteI am a big fan of bite-size treats & these are a perfect example. I funneled the sweetened condensed milk into a squeeze bottle which was not only less messy, but a good way to divide it between 48 mini muffin cups.
