3 Layer Cookie Bar
These rich gooey bars are layered with a graham cracker crust, coconut and condensed milk filling and topped with a smooth peanut butter chocolate layer. I love how EASY these come together with just a few simple ingredients.
So I find it hard sometimes deciding between desserts; do I want a cookie or something more..? When faced with this dilemma I like to combine desserts and something wonderfully delicious happens, and this is no exception. Three layers of decadence to satisfy my sweet tooth and yours.
So what’s included in this recipe
Graham Cracker Crust – well like most layer bars this one starts with a buttery graham cracker curst.
Gooey Filling – this filling consists of only two ingredients; coconut shreds and sweetened condensed milk. THAT’S IT!
Peanut Butter Chocolate – the final layer consists of a combination of melted chocolate chips and peanut butter.
What if I don’t have graham crackers?
No worries you can actually use other cookies such as Golden Oreos or even Tea biscuits they will be delish.
Can you freeze them?
Most definitely you can freeze them, just bake them off let them cool wrap them up tightly and that’s it. They keep well in freezer for a few months. Pop them in the fridge overnight or out on counter to thaw.
These cookie bars are rich, decadent and SUPER easy to make; so go ahead and make a big batch of them to eat share or freeze you will not be disappointed.
