Delicious no-bake bars featuring a crunchy graham cracker base, rich chocolate, toasted nuts, and sweet coconut, perfect for satisfying dessert cravings or sharing at gatherings.
Ingredients
Instructions
- Melt oleo and mix with graham cracker crumbs; spread in 9 x 13-inch pan.
- Add chocolate bits, nuts, and coconut; drizzle milk over all.
- Bake for 20 to 30 minutes at 350°F.
- Cut into bars.
Tips & Substitutions
For a richer flavor, consider substituting half of the chocolate bits with peanut butter chips or butterscotch chips. If you're avoiding nuts, you can simply omit them or replace them with additional chocolate bits. Make sure to pack the graham cracker crumbs tightly to create a sturdy base. For a fun twist, try adding mini marshmallows for a s'mores variation.
Serving Suggestions
Cut into squares or bars and serve as a sweet treat at gatherings or parties. These Munchins Goodies pair beautifully with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a dollop of whipped cream. They also make a great addition to a dessert platter alongside other favorites like the Breakfast Pizza or Salami Pinwheels.
Storage & Reheating
Store any leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days. If you want to keep them fresh longer, refrigerate for up to a week. To reheat, simply warm in the microwave for a few seconds or enjoy them cold, as they have a delightful texture straight from the fridge.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can I use a different type of milk instead of Eagle Brand?
Yes, you can use any sweetened condensed milk as a substitute for Eagle Brand. If you're looking for a non-dairy option, try using a coconut condensed milk, which will complement the coconut in the recipe nicely.
How do I know when the Munchins Goodies are done baking?
The goodies are ready when they are golden brown on top and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean or with a few moist crumbs. Keep an eye on them to avoid overbaking, as they can become dry.
Can I freeze these bars for later?
Absolutely! To freeze, wrap the bars tightly in plastic wrap and then place them in a freezer-safe container. They can be frozen for up to 3 months. Thaw in the refrigerator before serving or enjoy them straight from the freezer for a cool treat.
