Seven Layer Bars

My mom used to make these bars every Christmas. They disappeared very quickly. You can vary it many ways. It all ends up good!

1/2 cup unsalted butter
1 1/2 cups graham cracker crumbs (leave a cracker pack closed. Beat it with
something to break up crackers. When crushed, measure out the crumbs)
1 cup semisweet chocolate chips (either of the chips can be changed as you prefer)
1 cup butterscotch chips
1 cup chopped pecans (or walnuts)
1 (14 ounce) can sweetened condensed milk
1 1/3 cups shredded coconut

DIRECTIONS

1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees
2. Place butter in 13 x 9 inch pan and melt in oven. Swirl to coat bottom and sides with butter.
3. Spread crumbs evenly over bottom of pan. Layer chocolate chips, butterscotch chips, and nuts over crumbs. Pour condensed milk over nuts. Sprinkle coconut over condensed milk. Press down on the coconut.
4. Bake until edges are golden brown, about 25 minutes. Let cool.
