Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and lightly grease a 9x13-inch baking pan or line it with parchment paper for easier removal.
In a medium-sized bowl, combine the graham cracker crumbs and melted butter. Mix until the crumbs are evenly moistened.
Press the graham cracker mixture firmly into the bottom of the prepared pan to create an even crust layer.
Pour the sweetened condensed milk evenly over the graham cracker crust, spreading it gently with a spatula if needed.
Sprinkle the chocolate chips over the condensed milk layer, followed by the shredded coconut.
Add the chopped nuts as the final layer, spreading them evenly across the top.
Press down gently on the layers with your hands or the back of a spatula to ensure the toppings adhere to the condensed milk.
Bake in the preheated oven for 25 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown and the coconut is lightly toasted.
Remove the pan from the oven and allow the bars to cool completely in the pan before slicing into 16 squares.
Serve and enjoy! Store any leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.
