My mother has made these as long as I can remember-I'm 40. Her recipe calls for 2 tablespoons of creamy peanut butter in the chocolate. And I actually made them with dark chocolate chips and wow!! Makes them taste even richer.

These are great! They were a hit at the Coffeehouse Night I took them to. Next time, I'd cook the crust for 10-12 minutes instead of 15. I also poured the milk over the coconut in the pan and instead of melting the chocolate, I just sprinkled the chips over the hot coconut. A few minutes later, I took a butter knife and spread the warm chips to make the top layer.

My guests loved this. I made one change..used brownie mix as the bottom layer, instead of graham crackers, turned out great!

Not at all impressed with this one. The comingling of coconut and graham crackers didn't get a good response at all. I made them again, but this time I made brownies (instead of the graham crackers) as my base, topped it with the coconut mixture and chocolate topping, they were AWESOME!

I followed other suggestions and poured the condensed milk over the coconut after sprinkling it over the crust. My only problem had nothing to do with the recipe...just someone with too many pots in the fire (literally!). I wasn't watching my chocolate closely enough while it was melting and it seized up on me! All of my years of baking and this has never happened! Of course, it was the time when I had no more chocolate chips in the house, so I had to try to use it anyway...it didn't spread well. So rather than looking ugly, these bars tasted good! Just watch your chocolate!!!

These bars are delicious! My grandmother has been making them for years and they are a family favorite. I would highly recommend substituting Hershey's chocolate bars for the choc. chips. Not only do they add great flavor, but they create a smooth top on the bars. Add 6 unwrapped bars after they come out of the oven. The bars will naturally melt over the coconut/milk mixture. You can then smooth it out over the top. My mom recommends to score the bars with a sharp knife before they fully set up. This way you can get nice clean slices. Also, I love these bars chilled!

To fix the spreading problem others have mentioned. I put the coconut over the graham base and then poured the milk on top directly from the can. Wait a few mins and it is all mixed. I also added almonds on top and drizzled the chocolate.

Great! I did not add the sugar to the graham cracker crust. I always wonder why the extra sugar when there is already sugar in the graham crumbs. Anyway, it was plenty sweet enough. I also, as suggested by another reviewer, spread the coconut on thop of the hot crust and then poured the condensed milk on top of that and it worked perfectly.

I made these bars to take to work and could barely get them out of the house. My husband loved these. So did my boss! I added some almonds to half of the bars to make them more like almond joy bars. This is my go to dessert when I want to impress!

Would rate these a 5 on taste. However this is the 1st recipe I've seen for Mounds Bars with so much work. Any I've ever seen before you put all of the ingredients in pan at once and then baked. A lot of extra steps for the same flavor result.
