Graveyard Squares - a sweet and easy treat for Halloween!

  • 1 ½ cups graham cracker crumbs
  • ½ cup unsalted butter, melted
  • 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
  • ¾ cup chopped nuts (walnut or pecan)
  • ½ cup butterscotch chips
  • ½ cup white chocolate chips
  • 2 cups large flaked coconut
  • 1 can (14 ounces or 396 grams) sweetened condensed milk
  • About 1/8 teaspoon green food colouring (a bit more or less depending on the brand you’re using)
  • 12 oval-shaped arrowroot cookies
  1. Preheat oven to 350˚F (175˚C). Line the bottom and sides of a 9x13-inch cake pan with parchment paper.

  2. Mix the graham cracker crumbs and melted butter together in a medium bowl. Spread the mixture in the cake pan and pack down firmly.

  3. Sprinkle the various chips and nut pieces over the graham cracker crust.

  4. In a medium bowl, gently mix together the coconut, condensed milk and green food colouring. Carefully spread the mixture over the chips and nuts (some of the under layer will peak through).

  5. Bake in the oven for 25 minutes so that the coconut gets a bit crispy and browned. When they come out of the oven, stick the arrowroot cookies into the squares so that they look like tombstones. Place on a wire rack and cool completely before lifting out of the pan, cutting and serving.
