Seven Layer Cookie Bars

Every winter, my 3 best friends and I have a daytime pajama party and we all bring something delicious and fattening to eat. This year my beautiful friend Erica made these. They are a variation on traditional 7 Layer Cookie Bars, which are made with coconut and pecans. Erica hates coconut and loves peanuts, so here is her recipe, which is, I suppose, a SIX layer cookie bar --completely addicting. I was obsessed for months. :)


Erica's Seven Layer Cookie Bars
1/3 cup butter
1 1/2 cups graham cracker crumbs
1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
1 cup butterscotch chips
1 cup dry roasted peanuts
2 14-oz. cans sweetened condensed milk

Directions:
-Preheat your oven to 325 degrees. Place butter in a 9 inch square pan and put it in the oven until melted. Remove from the oven and layer evenly graham cracker crumbs, chocolate chips, butterscotch chips, and peanuts, in this order. DO NOT STIR. Spread condensed milk evenly over the top. Bake at 325 degrees for 33 minutes. (Each oven varies so you might need to leave them in there a little less time or a little more.) Cool completely in pan, and cut into squares. Makes about 16 squares.
