Directions
-
Preheat oven to 350&# 194;°F (177ðC) (reduce (163ðC)to 325ðF if using a glass baking dish).
-
In a medium bowl, combine graham cracker crumbs, cocoa powder, sugar, and melted butter or margarine until well mixed.
-
Press the crumb mixture firmly and evenly onto the bottom of a 13x9-inch baking pan to form the crust.
-
Pour the sweetened condensed milk evenly over the prepared crust.
-
Sprinkle the chocolate chips, butterscotch chips, flaked coconut, and chopped nuts evenly over the milk layer.
-
Gently press down on the toppings so they adhere to the milk layer.
-
Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until the edges are lightly browned and the center is set.
-
Remove from oven and allow to cool completely in the pan on a wire rack.
-
Once cooled, cut into bars.

Note
Store loosely covered at room temperature for up to 5 days. For longer storage, refrigerate for up to 2 weeks.
You can substitute Reese's Peanut Butter Cups for the butterscotch chips for a peanut butter twist. Ensure nuts are finely chopped for even distribution.
For cleaner cuts, chill the bars in the refrigerator for an hour before slicing. Do not use evaporated milk; only sweetened condensed milk will yield the correct texture.
