Chocolate Nut Bars - cooking recipe

Ingredients
    1 3/4 cups graham cracker crumbs
    1/2 cup melted butter
    1 (14 ounce) can sweetened condensed milk
    1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
    1 1 cup peanut butter chips (I use a mix of all 3) or 1 cup white chocolate chips (I use a mix of all 3)
    1 teaspoon vanilla extract
    1 cup chopped pecans (any nuts can be subbed)
Preparation
    Preheat oven to 375\u00b0f. Combine crumbs and butter, press firmly on bottom of 13x9 inch baking pan. Or for thicker bars you can use a 9x9 inch pan.
    Bake 8 minutes. Remove from oven.
    Reduce oven temperature to 350 f.
    Melt condensed milk, semi-sweet chocolate chips and vanilla together in a small saucepan.
    Spread chocolate mixture over prepared crust.Let cool for 5-10 minutes.
    Top with remaining chocolate chips, then nuts.
    Press down firmly.I use a heat safe rubber spatula for this, if you use your hands expect to get sticky.
    Bake 25-30 minutes, use rubber spatula to press topping down again half way through cooking.
    Cool completely. Cut into bars. Store loosely covered at room temperature.
