Number Of Ingredients 6

1/2 cup(s) plus 2 tablespoons butter, divided
1/4 teaspoon(s) salt
1 cup(s) chopped pecans
1 1/2 cup(s) graham cracker crumbs
1 - (14 oz.) can sweetened condensed milk
2 cup(s) m&ms (i used the minis)

Steps:

Melt 2 T butter in pan, add pecans and salt. Toast for 2-3 minutes. Set aside. Preheat your oven 350°F. Line a 13 x 9-inch baking pan with foil, letting it hang over the edges, and spray with non-stick cooking spray.
Melt the remaining ½ cup butter and combine in a bowl with the graham cracker crumbs. Toss together with a fork until fully moistened and transfer to the prepared pan. Press down firmly, using the bottom of a glass or measuring cup to make sure it is packed down well.
Pour about two-thirds of the sweetened condensed milk evenly over crumb mixture. Sprinkle the pecans and M&M's evenly over the sweetened condensed milk layer, then drizzle with the remaining sweetened condensed milk. Bake 25-30 minutes or until lightly browned. Cool completely, then remove the bars from the pan using the edges of the foil, and cut into bars.
