Magic Bars Recipes

Paleo, Primal and GF recipe from Meaningful Eats via Primal Palate A make-over of Magic Bars

Simple and easy to make. Graham cracker crumb crust, chocolate chips, coconut, walnuts. I used fat free sweetened condensed milk so the fat content is less than calculated.

Dessert bars with a brownie base and peanut butter fudge top layer, mixed with pretzels!

Recipe from Eagle Brand

My mom made these for me when I was small and now I make them for my husband and daughter. A pan never lasts long in our house! (Sometimes we use peanut butter chips instead of butterscotch ones.)

I made this for Christmas and entered it to see what the nutritional values were.
This is a higher fat and calorie dessert and not intended to be a diet friendly recipe.

See Eagle Sweetended Condensed Milk website.

This is the standard recipe minus the nuts.

This has been a holiday tradition for my family over the last 30+ years.

Freed the guilt even more from a childhood favorite--this recipe is bowl-licking, extra-chocolate-chip-sneaking approved!
~55 cals for a little bar, ~75 medium sized, ~110 for a huge serving.

as close to the Eagle Brand Magic Cookie Bar as you can get, Gluten Free of course.

They’re buttery. And creamy. And melty. And chocolatey. But they’re also crunchy. And crisp where the graham cracker peeks up around the edges, in perfect harmony with the coconut and pecans. They’re like s’mores made with Mounds bars, on steroids.

This is not nutritious at all. But it's a great example of a food you should not eat a lot of at Christmas. Happy Holidays! :)

very sweet.

Addictive!
