It may be because I just started & don’t have the experience so … when I stirred it often I was able to get the coconut toasted better the 2nd time I made them for xmas. The second try came out better. OFF TOPIC: The best part is that now I have an appreciation for the time, skill, effort, and cost that goes into baking (and all cooking) and i no longer take a cavalier attitude when I eato something someone made. The bars are great but this realization is even better

Hi Bill,

So glad that you enjoyed the bars! As far as toasting the coconut – I have never stirred it, but just watch very closely to make sure it doesn’t get too dark. Would be interested to hear others’ thoughts on it though!

OK….so these just cooled….just have to say that the 8th layer was a VERY tasty idea. All the heath chips melted into a caramely sweet exlosion that can only be tamed by a tall glass of ice cold milk.

After looking at a bunch of 7-layer recipes, this was great — my first foray into baking as part of my wife’s annual cookie exchange (decided to contribute instead of solely receive the benefits ). One thing: the toasting of the coconut. I had lots of trouble w/ this until I found online that I should stir it every 30 seconds. Do people agree with this & should this be an update to the recipe?

I’m going to bake these to send to people for the holidays. But I’m going to use peanut butter chips instead of the butterscotch. I’ll let you know how they turn out.

These are so insanely easy to make and so delicious. Whenever I make them I give a few to each of my friends (a full pan would be dangerous sitting in my house) and they just love them!

I made these to bring into work today. I ended up using peanut butter chips instead of butterscotch since we are peanut butter fiends. Everyone loved them!

My mom used to make these and I think the recipe was called something like “Classical Cookie”. Can’t wait to try your recipe, seven is a good number.
