HELLO DOLLIES



Hello Dollies image

Bar cookies are always brilliant, but these Hello Dollies are extra brilliant because salty Ritz crackers add balance to an otherwise strictly sweet treat.

Provided by Erin Renouf Mylroie

Number Of Ingredients 7

35 Ritz crackers smashed into small crumbs, plus 8 additional crackers, crushed, divided
¼ cup (57 g) unsalted butter, melted
1 cup (168 g) semisweet chocolate chips
1 cup (168 g) peanut butter or butterscotch baking chips
1 cup (109 g) chopped pecans, walnuts, or macadamia nuts
1 cup (186 g) sweetened shredded dried coconut
6 oz. (180 ml) sweetened condensed milk

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Line an 8 x 8-inch (20 x 20-cm)or 9 x 9-inch (23 x 23-cm) baking dish with parchment paper.
  • In a large bowl, combine the crumbs from 35 smashed crackers and melted butter. Press the mixture into the bottom of the baking dish. Sprinkle the chocolate chips, peanut butter chips,nuts and coconut over the cracker layer. Drizzle the condensed milk over the top, trying to make it reasonably even. I use a spoon and slowly drizzle the milk, spoonful by slow spoonful. Sprinkle the remaining crushed crackers over the top of the milk.
  • Bake for about 25 minutes, or until the coconut is golden brown and the edges are nicely toasted. Let the bars cool for at least an hour. Cut into small triangles by first cutting 9 squares, the cutting each square in half on the diagonal to get 18 triangles.Store the bars in the fridge.

I love these types of desserts. They are easy, delicious, and great for summer. This one comes from my girlfriend Doreen, but I think she used cool whip last time instead of of the dream whip. Also, you can make this with blueberry or apple pie fillings or whatever you like.
