Warning: you should discontinue reading this if you are the type of person who will take a bite of dessert and then stop eating it. With seven layer bars, you will be tempted to eat the entire pan. Good news is, this is the easiest and most delicious recipe you will ever make. For all those college students who cannot manage to put together an apple tarte tartin (I do not blame you), this is the perfect dessert for you.
Growing up, this was the one recipe that my brothers and I could make without our mother around. We just threw everything into a pan (sometimes arguing over which ingredient we each got to add), and in 35 minutes we had a delicious dessert. So, since I know at this point you must be on your toes about what the seven ingredients are, I will go ahead and list them: butter, graham crackers, semisweet chocolate chips, butterscotch chips, walnuts, coconut, and sweetened condensed milk.

The recipe could not be simpler. First, you add one stick of melted butter to the bottom of the pan. Then, sprinkle the graham crackers on top. Afterwards, toss the semisweet chocolate chips on top followed by the butterscotch chips. Next, add the chopped walnuts and the coconut. Lastly, the sweetened condensed milk is poured on top sealing all of the ingredients into one, flawless dessert. The different textures of the coconut, chocolate, walnuts, and graham crackers combined with the sweetness of the condensed milk makes for that perfect gooey bite that will melt in your mouth.
