- Prep: 15 mins
- Cook: 30 mins
- Yields: 12 Servings
Directions
1Preheat the oven to 350° F.
2Grease a 9×13 inch baking pan (I used non-stick cooking spray).
3In a medium bowl, mix together the cake mix, butter and egg.
4Press into the bottom of the prepared pan. The crust should not come up the sides. Bake for 7 minutes and remove from the oven. The crust will not look done.
5While the crust is baking, mix together the sweetened condensed milk, vanilla, egg, pecans and coconut.
6Pour evenly over the warm crust and sprinkle evenly with the chocolate chips.
7Bake for 24-30 minutes, until the top is a light golden brown. Remove from the oven and cool completely before cutting into squares.
