Ingredients:
3 tablespoons butter (see note) or 3 tablespoons margarine, melted ( see note)
0.5 (18 1/2 ounce) packages of a 2 layer white cake mix ( about 2 cups of dry mix)
1 1/2 cups miniature marshmallows
1 cup chocolate chips
1 1/3 cups sweetened flaked coconut ( 3 1/2 oz)
1 cup coarsely chopped mixed nuts
1 (14 ounce) cans sweetened condensed milk
Directions:
Preheat oven to 350F.
Using a 9×13″ pan, pour the melted butter or margarine into the pan and tilt it around to coat the bottom completely.
Sprinkle the cake mix over melted butter.
Then, sprinkle with the marshmallows, then the chocolate chips, then the coconut and lastly, the nuts.
Pour the condensed milk evenly over all.
Bake for about 30 minutes, until golden brown.
Remove from the oven and run a knife around the edges to loosen.
Then let it cool before cutting into 1 1/2 x 1″ bars.
Makes about 6 dozen cookies.
Note: To save yourself a step and a dish to wash, you can put the butter or margarine right in the baking pan and heat it a low oven before raising the heat to 350F to preheat.
Also, I found that in some ovens it might brown a bit too quickly.
Check it while baking.
If it does brown too quickly, cover with tin foil to keep it from browning any more, and remove for the last 5 minutes or so of baking.
