Five Star Bars

Oh So Easy Five Star Bars
Five Star Bars

Again today, Rock Recipes is featuring another cookie by request. Over the last couple of years in our annual cookie march to Christmas, I have received several requests for a recipe for this particular bar cookie. It is a local favorite here and I have seen them in many local bakeries for years but never had made them before. I don't know why? ...they couldn't be easier to make or be more soft, chewy and caramel-y delicious. They freeze really well too.

Mix together:

  • 1/4 cup melted butter
  • 2 cups graham cracker crumbs
  • 2 cups unsweetened coconut
  • A 10 ounce can sweetened condensed milk
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla

Press into a parchment paper lined 9 x 9 pan.

Bake in a 350 degree oven for 20 minutes or until firm.

As soon as they come out of the oven, sprinkle over the top of the hot cookie bars:

  • 1 cup chocolate chips (use your preference of  milk chocolate, semi sweet or dark)


Let stand for 5 to 10 minutes to allow the chocolate to melt, then spread evenly over the top.

Allow the bars to cool to room temperature before cutting.
