Hello Dollies are rich, chewy seven-layer cookies featuring chocolate, butterscotch, coconut, and nuts, perfect for sharing at parties or as a sweet treat any time.
Ingredients
Instructions
- Melt butter in a 9 x 9 x 2-inch pan.
- Sprinkle graham cracker crumbs, flaked coconut, chocolate morsels, butterscotch morsels, and chopped nuts into the pan in that order.
- Pour the condensed milk over the layered ingredients.
- Bake at 350°F for 30 minutes.
- Allow to cool in the pan before cutting into squares.
Tips & Substitutions
To enhance the flavors, consider using unsweetened coconut for a more intense coconut taste. You can substitute the nuts with sunflower seeds or pumpkin seeds for a nut-free version. If you prefer a richer chocolate flavor, use dark chocolate morsels instead of semi-sweet. Make sure to evenly distribute the condensed milk to ensure all layers are moist and flavorful.
Serving Suggestions
These Hello Dollies can be served as a delightful dessert at gatherings or potlucks, alongside a scoop of vanilla ice cream for a decadent treat. They also pair wonderfully with coffee or tea, making them a great addition to a dessert table. For a festive touch, consider serving them at your next Autumn Festival Fluff gathering.
Storage & Reheating
Store leftover Hello Dollies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to a week. For longer storage, you can refrigerate them, which will keep them fresh for up to two weeks. To reheat, simply warm them in the microwave for a few seconds; this will help restore some of the original texture without making them overly soft.
