Ingredients

• 2 cups graham cracker crumbs
• 1 cup unsalted butter, melted
• 14 oz can sweetened condensed milk
• 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
• 1 cup white chocolate chips
• 1 cup sweetened shredded coconut
• 1 cup dried cherries, roughly chopped
• 1 cup crispy rice cereal

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9x13-inch baking dish lightly with cooking spray or line it with parchment paper for easier removal.

Step 2

In a medium-sized bowl, combine the graham cracker crumbs and melted butter. Mix well until the crumbs are evenly coated and resemble wet sand.

Step 3

Press the graham cracker mixture evenly into the bottom of the prepared baking dish to form a solid crust.

Step 4

Pour the sweetened condensed milk evenly over the graham cracker crust, ensuring full coverage.

Step 5

Sprinkle the semi-sweet chocolate chips evenly over the condensed milk layer.

Step 6

Next, sprinkle the white chocolate chips evenly on top of the semi-sweet chocolate chips.

Step 7

Add a layer of sweetened shredded coconut over the chocolate chips, distributing evenly across the baking dish.

Step 8

Sprinkle the roughly chopped dried cherries over the coconut layer.

Step 9

Finally, evenly spread the crispy rice cereal on top of the cherries.

Step 10

Press down gently with the back of a spatula or a piece of parchment paper to compact the layers slightly.

Step 11

Place the baking dish in the preheated oven and bake for 25-30 minutes, or until the edges are golden and the coconut on top begins to toast.

Step 12

Remove from the oven and allow the bars to cool completely in the dish on a wire rack.

Step 13

Once cooled, use a sharp knife to cut the bars into 24 squares. Serve and enjoy!
