Magic Cookie Bars are easy to make and always a hit! The bars are layered with a graham cracker crust, butterscotch chips, chocolate chips, pecans, coconut, and sweetened condensed milk. Basically, dessert heaven!

You can freeze these Holiday Magic Squares for up to three months. They will come out of the freezer looking just like they did when you put them in there as long as you don't stack them. If you must stack, lay a sheet of parchment paper between each layer.

Place baking pan on a wire cooling rack and let the bars cool in the pan for at least 30 minutes (preferably longer, they hold up better as they cool). Use the parchment paper to lift the cookie bars out of the pan, then cut into squares and serve.

Cut into 24 pieces and store in an airtight container with wax paper or parchment paper between layers. The flavor of the bars is even better the day after baking. Bars stored at room temperature will be fairly soft and are best eaten within 3 to 5 days. For firm and chewy bars, store in the fridge for up to a week.

Sweetened condensed milk is high in calories and unsuitable for people with cow's milk protein allergy or lactose intolerance. Its sweet flavor may be off-putting for some and doesn't typically serve as a good substitute for regular milk in recipes.

Depends on the size of the pan, scaling of the recipe, and the appetite of the diners. If it's a regular recipe or a boxed mix, it will likely be a 9x9 pan, which I usually cut into about 9 bars, or a 9x13 pan, which I usually cut into 12 servings.

If your cookies are consistently turning out raw or undercooked, you may need to adjust the baking time and temperature. Here are some tips to ensure your cookies are perfectly baked: Baking time: Increase the baking time in small increments, keeping a close eye on the cookies to prevent over-baking.
