Happy Holidays Everyone!  Today Alex and Captain John wanted to share these tasty treats with all of TQS. It turns out that Alex is not really a cookie baker, but not to worry, Captain John's sister makes a killer cookie and sends them on to Chez Anderson every year. Adair thinks these are absolutely the best, what do you think?

Magic Cookie Bars - makes about a dozen.

Ingredients

Crisco® Original No-Stick Cooking Spray
1 2/3 cups graham cracker crumbs
1/2 cup butter, melted
1 (14 oz.) can Eagle Brand® Sweetened Condensed Milk
1 cup (6 oz. pkg.) semi-sweet chocolate chips
1 cup (6 oz pkg.) butterscotch chips
1 1/3 cups flaked coconut
1 cup chopped nuts (optional)

Instructions
HEAT oven to 350°F. Spray 13 x 9-inch baking pan with no-stick cooking spray.

COMBINE graham cracker crumbs and butter in small bowl. Press into bottom of prepared pan. Pour sweetened condensed milk evenly over crumb mixture. Layer evenly with chocolate chips, coconut and nuts. Press down firmly with fork.

BAKE 25 to 30 minutes or until lightly browned. Loosen from sides of pan while still warm; cool on wire rack. Cut into bars or diamonds.

For perfectly cut cookie bars, line entire pan with foil, extending foil over edge of pan. Coat lightly with no-stick cooking spray. After bars have baked and cooled, lift up with edges of foil to remove from pan. Cut into individual bars.

You can substitute chocolate chips or nuts with candy coated pieces, dried cranberries, raisins, mini-marshmallows or butterscotch chips.
