For a richer flavor, use dark chocolate chunks instead of semisweet. Add a pinch of sea salt to the graham cracker crust for a salty-sweet contrast. Store the bars in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.
Indulge in the captivating allure of Peanut Butter Magic Bars, where layers of luscious flavors and textures unite in perfect harmony. These bars feature a symphony of chocolate chunks, toffee bits, and coconut, all harmoniously blended with creamy peanut butter and adorned with festive candy-coated chocolate pieces. Each bite is a delightful journey of contrasting sensations, making these bars an irresistible treat for any occasion.
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Line a 13x9-inch baking dish with aluminum foil, ensuring the foil extends over the edges for easy removal. Spray the foil generously with coconut oil cooking spray to prevent sticking. (5 minutes)
In a small bowl, combine the sweetened condensed milk and melted peanut butter. Mix until well combined and set aside. In a separate bowl, combine the crushed graham cracker crumbs and melted spread-tub until evenly moistened. (5 minutes)
Press the crumb mixture firmly and evenly into the bottom of the prepared baking dish to form a crust. (3 minutes)
Sprinkle the chocolate chunks, toffee bits, and flaked coconut evenly over the graham cracker crust. Gently pour the peanut butter mixture over the coconut layer, spreading it evenly to cover the toppings. Sprinkle the candy-coated chocolate pieces over the peanut butter layer. (7 minutes)
Bake in the preheated oven for 20 to 25 minutes, or until the bars are bubbly and golden brown. (25 minutes)
Remove the baking dish from the oven and let the bars cool completely at room temperature. This may take several hours. (120 minutes)
Once completely cooled, lift the bars from the dish using the overhanging foil. Remove the foil and cut the bars into 30 equal-sized pieces. (5 minutes)
For a richer flavor, use dark chocolate chunks instead of semisweet. Add a pinch of sea salt to the graham cracker crust for a salty-sweet contrast. Store the bars in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.
