This is the standard “care package” entry. The distance between Texas and California is far, so we need at least one treat that travels well.

ingredients

6 T. butter
1 c. crushed vanilla wafers
1 package (recipe says 6 oz.-- ha-ha!)semi-sweet chocolate chips
1 can (4 oz.) Angel Flake coconut
1 c. chopped pecans (optional-- not usually what we did)
1 can (15 oz.) Eagle Brand sweetened condensed milk

directions

Melt butter in 9“ c 13” Pyrex pan. Add vanilla wafer crumbs and press into very thin layer. Over crumbs, sprinkle chocolate chips, then coconut, then pecans if using. Drizzle sweetened condensed milk over all. Bake at 325° for approximately 30 minutes. Cool for several hours before cutting into small bars.
