Chocolate-Coconut Bars

Chocolate-Coconut Bars (from here)

Note: These were delicious.

3 cups finely ground cookies (12oz) - graham cracker, chocolate wafters, or combo
1/4 c. sugar
3/4 c. (1 1/2 sticks) unsalted butter, melted
1 c. pecan pieces
1 c. semisweet chocolate chips or chunks
1 can (14oz) sweetened condensed milk
1 1/2 c. sweetened shredded coconut

Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Lightly splash a 15x10 rimmed baking sheet evenly with water, then line with parchment paper.

In a large bowl, stir together cookie crumbs, sugar, and batter until combined. Evenly press onto bottom and up sides of prepared baking sheet. Bake, rotating halfway through, until firm, about 10 mins. Transfer to a wire rack; cool, about 20 minutes.

Sprinkle cooled crust evenly with pecans and chocolate. Pour condensed milk over the top, spreading to cover completely (do not let it drip over the edges). Sprinkle with coconut.

Bake until coconut is toasted, 10 to 15 mins. Transfer to rack; cool completely. Trim edges, if desired, and cut into equal-sized bars.
