Ingredients
  

  • ¾ cup unsalted butter softened
  • 1 cup light brown sugar firmly packed
  • 1 ¾ cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 ¼ teaspoons salt
  • ½ teaspoon baking soda
  • 1 cup old-fashioned oats
  • ½ cup pecans roughly chopped
  • 1 12-ounce package butterscotch chips
  • 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
  • 1 cup sweetened flaked coconut
  • ½ cup sweetened condensed milk

Method
 

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F. Prepare a 9 x 13-inch baking dish, spraying with a non-stick cooking spray.
  2. In a stand mixer, beat together the butter and sugar on medium speed until well combined and fluffy, about 3 - 5 minutes.
  3. Turn off the mixer, add in the flour, a little at a time, mixing slowly between additions. Continue mixing while adding in the salt, and baking soda until well combined.
  4. Gradually add in the oats, mixing well, add pecans, mixing until just combined.
  5. Pour oats mixture into prepared pan, firmly pressing down and spreading evenly. Top by layering the butterscotch chips followed by layering the chocolate chips and finally the coconut flakes. Drizzle over the sweetened condensed milk.
  6. Bake in the preheated 350°F oven for about 20 - 25 minutes, or until starting to turn golden brown. Allow to cool about 5 minutes, cut into squares and serve.
