Does anyone have a recipe for 7 layer bars/cookies that they would like to share. I lost my recipe that I had for about 25 years. I do remember that the first layer/crust was bake but was not gram cracker like so many recipes that I see now. It also had coconut, chocolate chips, and several other sweet things in it.

Thanks,

Tina

Bonjour, Tina! Your recipe sounds good! Maybe someone will post the recipe you are searching for. This one was called "Magic Layer Bars" I think, and I will try from memory here; not sure if there really ARE seven layers, but here goes.

Melt stick of butter/margarine and blend with crushed graham crackers. Press down into pan. Pour sweetened condensed milk over all, sprinkle chocolate chips, sweetened grated coconut, and walnuts (or pecans). I press this down with a spatula, before baking at 350 for 25 minutes, or til top begins to get a golden look to it.
