Chippies
Chippies are sweet, chocolatey treats with a crunchy graham cracker base, perfect for satisfying dessert cravings or sharing with friends and family. They are easy to make and delicious.
Ingredients
Instructions
- Crush graham crackers in a plastic Ziploc bag and then mix them in a bowl with the Eagle Brand milk.
- Add the chocolate chips to the mixture.
- Pour the mixture into a greased 8 x 8 x 2-inch pan.
- Bake in a preheated 375°F oven for 20 to 25 minutes.
- Cut into bars and serve.
Tips & Substitutions
For a richer flavor, consider using dark chocolate chips instead of milk chocolate. You can also substitute the Eagle Brand milk with sweetened condensed coconut milk for a dairy-free option. If you want a crunchier texture, add some chopped nuts to the mixture before baking. Ensure the graham crackers are finely crushed for even distribution in the bars.
Serving Suggestions
Cut the Chippies into small squares for a perfect bite-sized treat. They pair wonderfully with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a dollop of whipped cream for a delightful dessert. For a fun twist, serve them alongside a fruit salad or alongside the Easy Cheese Torte for a more varied dessert platter.
Storage & Reheating
Store leftover Chippies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days. For longer storage, refrigerate them for up to a week. If you want to enjoy them warm, pop them in the microwave for 10-15 seconds before serving to soften them slightly.

Frequently Asked Questions
