I use pumpkin seeds and pistachios
Mary Pratt
Delicious! I usually use Ritz crackers instead of graham crackers, as that’s what’s more likely to be in my cupboard. I use about half the butter called for with the crackers.
Kevin Parks
Wish I’d read the reviews and changed this up a bit. I heartily agree that the Graham cracker crust should be baked first. These didn’t set up for me and are really messy. Made it for Super Bowl tomorrow and so disappointed.
Troy Fisher
I do this exact thing except I switch out the white chocolate for butterscotch chips and add sweet and spicy candied pecans instead of walnuts !! So good !
Holly Ewing
Amazing
Michelle Thompson
I love these! My grandma used to make them every year for Christmas, but she used butterscotch chips instead of the white chocolate chips, so that’s what I do too.

I love Hello Dollys! My mom made them for years but instead of graham cracker crumbs, she used lightly crushed corn flakes. The corn flakes are less sweet than the graham cracker crumbs, but have a slight saltiness that complements the richness of the other ingredients and give the bars a little crunch. So yummy!

i used a 9×13 pan and melted the stick of butter in that first.

We’ve made this in the past, and have never been disappointed. It’s fun to improvise with other additional toppings – butterscotch chips, pretzel pieces and toffee crumbles have worked well. Easy and fun for kids to participate as well. One caveat with this recipe – If you choose a 9×13 pan as suggested, you will need to add about 50% more graham crackers and butter in order to cover the entire bottom of the pan. Otherwise, just use a smaller pan, say 11 x 7.

I made this and substituted pecans for the walnuts and used snickers morsels in addition to the chocolate chip morsels. It came out very tasty!

So good, I’ve already made it twice. Dubbed them COVID bars. No adjustment needed for high altitude (8,000 ft). Only dishes besides the baking dish are a rubber spatula and measuring scoop. Melt the butter right in the baking dish while the oven preheats, stir in the crumbs (no mess if you roll the crackers in a plastic bag), add toppings. Delicious.

This recipe has been part of my Christmas baking repertoire for two years now, and has earned permanent favourite status! It’s easy, delicious, festive, and has a good yield. Everyone loves them. I make the recipe exactly as described. Thanks for sharing!

This is an old family recipe too…… It is simply delicious..
Keith Johnson
Not enough graham cracker for the amount of butter. Soupy mess and very thin…..
Lisa Anderson
This is an excellent recipe and received rave reviews. I had to add a little more graham wafer crumbs(maybe 1/4 cup) to the 1/2 cup of melted butter as it seemed too moist with just 1 1/2 cups of the crumbs. Otherwise it was a keeper
Jennifer Waters DDS
Oh my word! So addictive! I used butterscotch chips instead of white chocolate. Will definitely make again. I’ll try white chocolate chips next time.
Kimberly Delgado
These are perfect, I use actual graham wafers and chop them up in the food processor, one sleeve works. I also use one cup of white chocolate chips, but that is the only change
