Pecan Pie Magic Cookie Bars with Chocolate Shortbread Crust

Magic Cookie Bars are also known as Seven Layer Bars and Hello Dolly Bars.

Traditional Magic Cookie Bars are layers of ingredients beginning with a graham cracker crust and ending with sweetened condensed milk. When baked the sweetened condensed milk binds everything together and they magically become one gooey, crunchy, amazing dessert bar.

For my Pecan Pie Magic Cookie Bars with Chocolate Shortbread Crust, I used the same concept but change the ingredients to taste like Pecan Pie. They are wonderful!

Pecan Pie Magic Cookie Bars with Chocolate Shortbread Crust

My layers start with a chocolate shortbread crust. Next, I layered pecans, caramel, coconut, and the magical sweetened condensed milk. After 30 minutes in the oven, the sweetened condensed milk sticks all the layers together. And, it was a wonderful thing!

The really great thing about this recipe it’s really customizable. If you don’t like coconut use less or leave it out and layer on more pecans or caramel. Broken pretzels would also be amazing on this version of Magic Bars. You can also use chocolate chips, butterscotch chips, or M&Ms would be good.

Once the bars are baked, you have to let them cool before cutting them. The sweetened condensed milk needs to cool and set, otherwise, they’ll be a gooey mess.

    Not sure why but I have signed up twice to receive newsletter; I have not got any. Don’t know what I’m doing wrong or not doing.

      The address you listed on this comment wasn’t on my list. I added it. You will get an email and all you need to do is confirm it. Then you’ll get an email every time I post a new recipe which is typically twice a week.
