Nanaimo Bars


First time ever I made these bars!! I actually don't like nanaimo bars because I'm not a fan of icing. These were actually really good, although I'd thin out the chocolate for a better look!  :♥)

1 cup Chocolate Chips
1/2 cup Butter
1 1/4 cup Graham Wafer Crumbs
1 cup Coconut
1/2 cup Walnuts or Pecans
2 cups Icing Sugar
1/4 cup Butter, softened
3 tsp Milk
2 tbsp Custard powder
1 tsp Vanilla
3/4 cup Chocolate Chips
2 tps Vegetable Oil

In medium saucepan over low heat (or in large bowl in microwave) melt chocolate chips and butter. Stir in graham wafer crumbs, coconut and nuts. Press it evenly into 9-inch square pan. Chill in the frigde for about 30 minutes. OR put it out in the cold like I did lol

In small bowl, blend icing sugar, butter, milk, custard powder, vanilla and spread evenly over chilled base.

Melt chocolate chips with vegetable oil over hot water (or in microwave). Spread evenly over filling. Chill. Cut into bars and watch the icing ooze out LOL
