ingredients
7 Layer Magic Bars
- 2 1/2 cups graham cracker crumbs
- 1 cup melted dairy-free butter
- 1 cup dairy-free chocolate chips
- 1 cup unsweetened coconut flakes
- 1/2 cup chopped pecans or walnuts
7 Layer Magic Bars Instructions
Step 1
Preheat the oven to 325ºF.
Step 2
Crush graham crackers in a large freezer bag or blender. Make sure not to crush them too finely, because you still want some bits in there. In a medium sized bowl, combine with the melted butter. Use your hands to mold this into the bottom of an 8x8” baking dish lined with parchment paper.
Step 3
Pour half of the pumpkin mixture over the graham cracker base. Sprinkle the chocolate chips and then the coconut flakes over. You want to have distinct layers, so make sure the chocolate chips are spread out evenly, and then the coconut flakes. Pour the other half of the pumpkin mixture over the coconut flakes. Top with the chopped pecans or walnuts. Sprinkle with extra pumpkin spice, if desired.
Step 4
Bake in the oven for 45-48 minutes. Let cool for at least 10 minutes.
Step 5
Remove using the parchment paper, cut, and enjoy! Store in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 7 days.
