Equipment
- Mixing Bowl
- Spoon or spatula
- 9x13 inch baking pan
- Parchment Paper
- Oven
Ingredients
- 1 1/2 cups salted butter, melted
- 1 1/2 cups peanut butter chips
- 1 1/2 cups chocolate chips
- 1 1/2 cups mini M&Ms
- 1 1/2 cups graham cracker crumbs
- 1 14-ounce can sweetened condensed milk
- 3/4 cup old-fashioned oats
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
- Line a 9x13 inch baking pan with parchment paper, leaving some overhang on the sides for easy removal.
- In a mixing bowl, combine the graham cracker crumbs and melted salted butter. Stir until evenly coated and mixture resembles wet sand.
- Press the graham cracker mixture firmly into the bottom of the prepared baking pan to form the crust.
- Evenly sprinkle the old-fashioned oats over the crust. Pour the sweetened condensed milk over the oats, ensuring even coverage.
- Scatter peanut butter chips, chocolate chips, and mini M&Ms over the top of the condensed milk and oats.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until edges are golden brown and center is set.
- Remove from oven and allow to cool completely in the pan on a wire rack. Lift bars out using parchment paper and slice into squares or rectangles.
Notes
- Substitute half the graham cracker crumbs with almond flour for a healthier option.
- Replace sweetened condensed milk with coconut milk-based homemade version for a lighter choice.
- Use dark chocolate chips instead of milk chocolate for richer flavor and antioxidants.
- Swap peanut butter chips for almond butter chips to vary the nutty flavor.
- Store bars in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days or refrigerate for up to 2 weeks.
