Description

A delicious and fun Monster Cookie Magic Bars recipe that is the perfect dessert for sharing at family dinner, potluck, or special occasion!


Ingredients

Scale

Graham Cracker Crust:

  • 3 cups graham crackers, crushed
  • 1 cup butter, melted (regular or plant-based)

Toppings:


Instructions

  1. Prep: Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Line a 9×13 baking dish with parchment, ensuring there are some extra on each side over-hanging to assist with lifting out the bars. Spray with olive oil or your favorite non-stick cooking spray.
  2. Make Crust: Combine crushed graham crackers and melted butter in a small mixing bowl. Pour out into the baking dish and spread out evenly. Press down firmly with hands to create a flat crust on the bottom.
  3. 1st Bake: Place in the oven, middle rack, for 10 minutes. Remove and let cool (feel free to pop in the fridge for 5-10 minutes to help it cool down quickly).
  4. Layer: Spread out 1/2 cup walnuts, 1/2 cup milk chocolate candies, 1/3 cup peanut butter chips, 1/4 cup mini dark chocolate chips, and 1-2 tablespoons rolled oats evenly across the graham cracker crust. Pour sweetened condensed milk over top evenly. Feel free to sprinkle a few extra candies, oats or chocolate chips over top. 
  5. 2nd Bake: Place in oven, middle rack, for 15-20 minutes. 
  6. Cool + Serve: Remove and let cool completely before cutting into squares and serving. 

Notes

  • Gluten-Free: simply make sure you are using certified gluten-free oats and gluten-free graham crackers.
  • Sweetened Condensed Milk: if you aren’t concerned with keeping it dairy-free, you can simply use a can of regular sweetened condensed milk.
  • Storage: simply place them in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 1 week.
  • Freezer: cut them into individual bars, place them in a single layer or place parchment paper in between layers, and store in a freezer-safe container for up to 3 months.
