7 Layer Bar


Decadent sweetness from 1970's


 
I think most of us had this luscious gooey treat if we lived in 1970's and 1980's.  I had to exercise extreme control not to eat the whole pan!  In today's standard, this is far from heart healthy, low sugar, low glycemic. gluten free food.  But as a rare treat, it's wonderful.  Great thing is, this freezes very well.  I'm going to cut them to bite size pieces and freeze them.  This way, I can take them out individually and eat them one at a time. 
1/4 lb Butter (one stick}
1 C graham cracker crumbs
1 C coconut flakes
1 C butterscotch chips
1 C chocolate chips
1 C Sweetened Condensed Milk
1 C chopped almonds
 
Melt butter and pour onto 7x11 pan. Layer each ingredient into the pan in order above. Bake at 350 degrees for 30 minutes. Cool completely before cutting.
