A little piece of childhood has been calling out to me for some time now...therefore it was time to give-in to a bit of nostalgia that my girls had not experienced yet. Can you believe they haven't had Magic Cookie Bars?!
My solution to my family's pickiness...make a batch with the alternative choices holding their own position in each third of the pan. (pre-bake) This way everyone gets to grab a bar that they love!
Magic Cookie Bars
Prep Time: 10 minutes
Bake Time: 25-30 minutes
Yield: 18-24 bars

1 1/3 cups flaked coconut

In a small bowl combine the graham cracker crumbs and butter. Mix well.
