I'd swear I've made this from a recipe from inside the label of the can and there was no grahm cracker or butter. Just the three ingredients: condensed milk, coconut, and chocolate chips. Am i wrong?

I have made Magic Cookie bars as long as I can remember. My granddaughter is graduating today and they are what she asked for? Does that say anything for how sumptuous they are?!? -
Omg, sinfully delicous. These are really sweet, but oh so good. We cut them in fingers and they were a hit at our camping get together. Thank you for this decadent dessert. -
These are awesome! -
since I was making these to give to my peanut butter-loving DS I used PB baking chips in place of the chocolate, these are always a hit, thanks for sharing Reds! -
I haven't met anyone who didn't love this stuff.

Use Nilla Wafers instead of graham crackers. Soooo good -

How can something so simple and easy to make be so good? I got rave reviews from my BF, coworkers and friends. I am going to keep these ingredients on hand to make these. I used almonds instead of pecans and they turned out great.

Canadian girl that loves to cook for herself and for everyone around her!! I always enjoyed cooking but more so since I started taking better care of myself by eating healthier food (I am a Weight Watchers Lifetime member!). I still love my chocolate though!
