They&#8217;re essentially seven layers of ingredients that you throw together in a pan and bake until they&#8217;re lightly browned.<\/p>\n<p>The end result is a super sweet and delicious bar that&#8217;s almost impossible to stop at just one. This recipe is also perfect if you need a simple dessert to throw together when you&#8217;re short on time!<!--more--><\/p>\n<h2>Ingredients in This Recipe<\/h2>\n<p>To make these magic bars, you need seven simple ingredients. Here&#8217;s what goes into this recipe:&nbsp;<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Graham Cracker Crumbs: <\/strong>I prefer to use store-bought graham cracker crumbs to make this recipe a little easier. If you prefer to make your own, you&#8217;ll need 11 to 12 full-sheets of graham crackers to get 1 and 1\/2 cups.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Butter:&nbsp;<\/strong><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">I recommend using unsalted butter since the amount of salt in salted butters can vary between different brands.&nbsp;<\/span><\/li>\n<li><strong>Semi-Sweet Chocolate Chips:<\/strong> Feel free to swap these out for dark chocolate or milk chocolate chips instead!<\/li>\n<li><strong>Peanut Butter Chips:<\/strong> A lot of people like to use butterscotch chips in magic cookie bars, but I prefer to use peanut butter instead. If you love the traditional version, feel free to stick with butterscotch.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Chopped Pecans:<\/strong> These add a little crunch to the bars, feel free to add a little more if you like.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Shredded Coconut:<\/strong> I always use sweetened shredded coconut. You can add the shredded coconut on the very top if you want the bars to look a little prettier with some toasted coconut.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Sweetened Condensed Milk:<\/strong> Once you add all of the other ingredients on top of the graham cracker layer, you&#8217;ll pour a can of sweetened condensed milk on top.&nbsp;<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-19425 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.livewellbakeoften.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/Magic-Cookie-Bars.jpg?resize=745%2C1118&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"A graham cracker crust in a 9x13 pan lined with aluminum foil.\" width=\"745\" height=\"1118\" data-pin-description=\"These Magic Cookie Bars are incredibly simple to throw together and made with just seven ingredients.

Now, some people like to just pour the melted butter in the pan then add the graham cracker crumbs on top.<\/p>\n<p>I prefer to combine the graham cracker crumbs and butter first, then press the mixture firmly into the pan. The bottom of a measuring cup works great for this step! By pressing it firmly into the pan it helps to create a more solid layer for the bottom of the bars.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>I also like to line my pan with a piece of foil and leave some overhang for easy removal. This will make it much easier to clean up and lift the bars out of the pan to slice them. Just be sure to spray the sides of the foil really well so the bars don&#8217;t stick to it.<\/p>\n<p><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-19421 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.livewellbakeoften.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/Magic-Cookie-Bars-2.jpg?resize=745%2C1118&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"A pan filled with all of the ingredients for magic cookie bars.\" width=\"745\" height=\"1118\" data-pin-description=\"These Magic Cookie Bars are incredibly simple to throw together and made with just seven ingredients.

To make this magic cookie bar recipe nut-free, use butterscotch chips instead of peanut butter chips and omit the pecans altogether.<\/p>\n<h2>Storage Instructions &nbsp;<\/h2>\n<p>Store magic bars in an airtight container at room temperature or in the refrigerator for up to 4 days.<\/p>\n<div class=\"baking-tips\">\n<h2>Baking Tips<\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li>It&#8217;s best to line your pan with aluminum foil or parchment paper. This will make it much easier to remove the bars from the pan and slice them! Just be sure to spray the sides of the foil or parchment paper before adding the mixture so it doesn&#8217;t stick.<\/li>\n<li>I prefer to mix the graham crackers and butter in a separate bowl and then press it into the pan. If you want fewer dishes to clean up, you can mix the two together right in the pan.<\/li>\n<li>If you want to make this recipe a little easier you can use store-bought graham cracker crumbs. If you prefer to crush your own, you&#8217;ll need 11-12 full-sheets of graham crackers.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n<h2>More Bar Recipes To Try!<\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li><a
