1 cup Sliced Almondsalmond
½ cups Mini Dark Chocolate Chipsdark-chocolate-chips
½ cups Dried Cherriescherry
½ cups Flaked Coconutcoconut
14 ounces, fluid Canned Light Sweetened Condensed Milk

Instructions (5 steps)

01Preheat oven to 350ºF. Combine dry ingredients in a large bowl. Add condensed milk and stir until dry ingredients become sticky (I used my hands to finish this process).
02Spray a 9 x 13″ baking dish with cooking spray. Scoop oat mixture into the dish. Spray a flat spatula with cooking spray and press oats flat into the dish.
03Bake for 20–30 minutes, until edges are slightly browned. This will produce a dense, slightly chewy bar.
04Allow to cool for about 5 minutes. Using a table knife, gently cut bars into 1″x 4″ pieces. Gently slide a knife around the border of the bars to release from the dish. Allow to cool in dish for about 20 minutes prior to removing the bars. Wrap each individual bar in plastic wrap for storage.
