Sweetened condensed milk works its magic in holding together a shortbread crust and chocolate and toffee topping!
Ingredients
1½ cups flour
⅓ cup sugar
¾ cup butter or margarine
1½ cups semisweet, milk chocolate or white chocolate chips
¾ cup coconut
¾ cup Skor toffee bits
½ cup sliced almonds
1 can (275 - 300 mL) sweetened condensed milk
Instructions
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Lightly grease a 9x13” pan. Combine flour and sugar. Cut in butter until mixture is crumbly. Press firmly into prepared pan. Bake for 12 minutes.
Meanwhile, combine chocolate chips, coconut, toffee bits and almonds in a small bowl.
When crust is done, pour sweetened condensed milk evenly over crust. Sprinkle with chocolate chip mixture. Press down firmly. Bake another 20-25 minutes, or until lightly browned. Cool completely before cutting into bars.
