Ingredients
Instructions
- Melt butter in a 13 x 9 x 2-inch pan.
- Sprinkle graham cracker crumbs evenly over the melted butter and press down.
- Sprinkle chocolate pieces, butterscotch pieces, coconut, and chopped nuts over the crumbs.
- Pour condensed milk evenly over all the ingredients.
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Bake for 30 minutes.
- Cool completely and cut into squares.
Tips & Substitutions
For a richer flavor, consider using unsweetened coconut or adding a pinch of sea salt to the layers. If you're out of butterscotch chips, feel free to substitute with peanut butter chips for a different twist. Make sure to press the graham cracker crumbs firmly to create a solid base. These cookies are quite sweet, so pairing them with a cup of coffee can balance the flavors nicely.
Serving Suggestions
These Hello Dollie Cookies are delightful on their own, but you can also serve them alongside a scoop of vanilla ice cream for an indulgent dessert. For a fun twist, pair them with a hot cup of coffee or a chilled glass of milk. They also make a great addition to dessert platters, especially when combined with other treats like 7 Layer Chocolate Cherry Bars.
Storage & Reheating
Store any leftover Hello Dollie Cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to a week. If you want to keep them longer, refrigerate for up to two weeks. To reheat, place a cookie in the microwave for about 10 seconds to soften slightly before enjoying. This will help revive their chewy texture.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can I make these cookies gluten-free?
Yes, you can make Hello Dollie Cookies gluten-free by using gluten-free graham cracker crumbs and ensuring that all other ingredients, including chocolate and butterscotch chips, are gluten-free. This way, everyone can enjoy this delicious treat without any concerns.
How do I know when the cookies are done baking?
The cookies are done when the edges are lightly golden and the top is set. You can also insert a toothpick in the center; it should come out mostly clean with a few moist crumbs attached. Be careful not to overbake, as they can dry out quickly.
Can I add additional mix-ins to the recipe?
Absolutely! Feel free to customize your Hello Dollie Cookies by adding dried fruits like raisins or cranberries, or even swapping in different nuts based on your preference. Just keep the overall volume similar to maintain the right texture. Enjoy experimenting with flavors!
