Death by Chocolate 7-Layer Bars

Category: Bars

Crust:
2 1/4 cup chocolate cookie crumbs (about a 10 ounce package of chocolate cookies or wafers)
8 tablespoons butter, melted
1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract

Layers:
1 cup milk, semisweet or bittersweet chocolate chips
1/2 cup toffee bits
1/2 cup white chocolate chips
1/2 cup sweetened, shredded coconut
1/2 cup Nutella
14 ounce can sweetened condensed milk

1.Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Line a 9X13-inch aluminum or glass pan with foil and lightly grease with cooking spray.

2.In a bowl, toss together the cookie crumbs, butter and vanilla until the mixture is combined. Press it evenly into the bottom of the prepared pan (the bottom of a dry measuring cup can really help get the crumbs into an even layer).

3.Sprinkle the chocolate chips over the crust followed by the toffee bits, white chocolate chips and coconut.

4.Spoon teaspoonfuls of the Nutella in little dollops over the bars (if you want more of a drizzle, warm the Nutella slightly in the microwave).

5.Drizzle the sweetened condensed milk back and forth evenly over the bars. Bake the bars for 25-30 minutes until the edges are golden.

6.Let the bars cool completely in the pan before cutting into squares. These are amazing at room temperature or chilled.
