Ingredients
- 2 cups white sugar
- 2 large eggs
- 2 cups peanut butter
- ¾ cup semisweet chocolate chips
- ¾ cup dark chocolate chips
- ½ cup chopped raw pecans
- ½ cup chopped raw almonds
- 1 cup flaked coconut
- 1 14 ounce can sweetened condensed milk
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a 9x13-inch baking dish with parchment paper for easy cleanup.
- In a large bowl, whisk together sugar and eggs until smooth. Stir in peanut butter until fully combined into a thick, creamy mixture.
- Spread the peanut butter mixture evenly into the prepared baking dish, ensuring it covers the bottom.
- Bake for 8 minutes to partially cook the base. It should just start setting, but not be fully cooked.
- Remove from the oven and gently layer the semisweet chocolate chips, dark chocolate chips, raw pecans, almonds, and flaked coconut over the base.
- Drizzle the sweetened condensed milk evenly over the top, ensuring all layers are covered.
- Return the dish to the oven and bake for an additional 30 minutes, or until the coconut is golden brown and the toppings are bubbling.
- Let the bars cool completely in the pan before lifting them out using the parchment paper.
- Slice into 20 squares using a sharp knife. Enjoy!
