Kinda-Healthy Magic Bars

Muesli

Pecans

Chocolate

Coconut. Not my favorite ingredient to add to desserts but I had a request for German Chocolate cupcakes, which is NOT the recipe I am promoting today. I didn't have coconut so I decided to make magic bars and scrapped the coconut for Muesli. Daring, I know. I used a bigger pan than usual and melted the butter in the oven and then added the graham cracker crumbs. Next came semi-sweet chocolate chips (a bag of regular size and 1/4 bag of mini), lots of chopped pecans, and I sprinkled the top with muesli. Then came 1 can plus 1/4 can of sweetened condensed milk. I cooked the mixture until golden brown.

Make sure you let the bars cool completely before cutting. I waited until the next morning and was able to present a tray of perfectly symmetrical bars.

Also, don't let the bars burn. They will be hard to cut and the chocolate will harden to the point where the bar is too crumbly. (Done that a few times in the past. Not good.)

They were a big hit at work. Go ahead, throw in something kinda healthy. They may never know.
