Steps

1. 1

   Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9x13 inch baking pan.

2. 2

3. 3

   Sprinkle the flaked coconut evenly over the graham cracker crust.

4. 4

   Layer the semi-sweet chocolate chips and butterscotch chips over the coconut.

5. 5

   Add the chopped pecans as the next layer.

6. 6

   In a small bowl, stir together the sweetened condensed milk and vanilla extract.

7. 7

   Pour the sweetened condensed milk mixture evenly over all the layers in the pan.

8. 8

   Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown and the center is set.

9. 9

   Allow the bars to cool completely in the pan before cutting into squares.

Notes

These bars are highly customizable; you can swap the pecans for walnuts or use different flavored chips like white chocolate or peanut butter. Ensure the bars are fully cooled before slicing to get clean cuts.
