Notes

  • Be sure to use sweetened condensed milk for these layer magic cookies recipes. It’s what brings the layers together and creates the gooey texture we love. Read the can to make sure it doesn’t say evaporated milk.
  • The bars are done baking when they're golden around the edges and the sweetened condensed milk looks dried and shiny.
  • Let them cool completely before slicing.
  • Don't skip lining the pan - this makes for easy removal.
  • Substitute graham crackers or any other sandwich cookie for the crust!
  • Swap out your favorite toppings for any of the ones listed
