These candies taste remarkably like an Almond Joy® bar and are quite addictive.

Ingredients
- 2 cups graham cracker crumbs
- ½ cup butter, melted
- ¼ cup white sugar
- 2 cups flaked coconut
- 1 (14 ounce) can sweetened condensed milk
- ½ cup chopped pecans
- 1 (8 ounce) chocolate candy bar, chopped
- 3 tablespoons creamy peanut butter
Instructions
- Preheat an oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease a 9×13-inch baking dish.
- Mix the graham cracker crumbs, butter, and sugar in a bowl. Press the mixture into the prepared baking dish to form a crust. Combine the coconut, sweetened condensed milk, and pecans in another bowl until well mixed. Spread coconut mixture over the cracker crust.
- Bake in the preheated oven until set, about 15 minutes. Set aside to cool completely, about 1 hour.
- Melt the chocolate bar and peanut butter in a small saucepan over very low heat, cooking and stirring until smooth, about 2 minutes. Spread the chocolate mixture evenly over the cooled coconut bars. Cool until set, about 15 minutes. Cut into bars before serving.

Reviews
I really liked this recipe but because I can’t eat chocolate I used carrot chips and turned out really nice.
This was decent. Next I will probably add some modifications, but I would make them again. Loved how moist it was.
it’s very tasty
This is great everyone loved it.
delish, but I bake the crust 10 mins before adding coconut mixture.
