Old Fashioned Chocolate Covered Coconut Bars
These Chocolate Covered Coconut Bars are so easy to make and taste just like a Mounds bar with a graham cracker crust....if a Mounds bar had a graham cracker crust. Actually these Chocolate Covered Coconut Bars taste so good with their graham cracker crust I think the makers of Mounds should consider adding a graham cracker crust layer.

- ½ cup melted butter
- 2 cups sweetened coconut flakes
- 14 ounce sweetened condensed milk
