Cookies & Milk Bars

These are very filling. Be careful not to overcook them. Because of the color of the graham crackers, it’s hard to tell when they have cooked too long. Let them cool before you try to cut them.

Assembly Directions:
Heat oven to 350 degrees. For each recipe, coat an 8” x 8” baking pan with cooking spray.

In a medium bowl, combine the crushed graham crackers, granola, white chocolate chips and nuts and mix well. Drizzle the condensed milk over the top and stir by hand until well blended.

Using a piece of waxed paper, press the mixture firmly into the prepared pan. Bake for 15-20 minutes or until just set. Cool completely. Cut into snack bars.

Freezing and Cooking Directions:
Put snack bars into individual snack bags. Put snack bags into a larger freezer bag. Label and freeze.

Comments:
Lowfat chocolate sandwich cookies may be substituted for the chocolate graham crackers. Low-fat granola and fat-free or low-fat sweetened condensed milk work fine as well.
