One of our favorite places to be is in the kitchen. We love to bake and cook and it all stemmed from our mom's passion of cooking. She would find a recipe that she loved, and then make it all year long. We used to say, "That was the year of the cheesecakes" or "That was the year of cinnamon rolls." Some of our fondest memories revolve around cooking together in the kitchen. We love to get together as family and contribute our best recipes for the meal. And we are constantly calling each other saying, "You've got to try this recipe!" We'd like to share our favorite recipes with you. So, happy cooking, happy baking, happy eating, and then happy exercising afterwards to burn those calories!

Hello Dolly Cookies

Hello Dolly Cookies. Such a happy name for such a happy treat! These were one of our favorite treats that our mom would make us. When you make layers upon layers of yummy ingredients, you can't go wrong! Let's not waste any more time talking about it!

Hello Dolly Cookies

INGREDIENTS:

- 3 cups crushed graham crackers

- 3/4 cup melted butter (1 1/2 cubes)

- 2 cups sweetened coconut

- 1 package chocolate chips (2 cups)

- 1 cup chopped pecans

- 1 can sweetened condensed milk


DIRECTIONS:

Stir the graham cracker crumbs and melted butter together and then press into a Pam-sprayed 9x13 pan using your fingers. Next spread the coconut out to make the second layer. Then spread the chocolate chips to form the third layer. Almost done! For the 4th layer, sprinkle on the crushed pecans. And finally, drizzle on a can of heaven...I mean...the sweetened condensed milk. Bake in the oven at 350 degrees for only 15 minutes (turn the pan around at the halfway point for even baking). And voila! Your dessert should look like this when it's finished:
