Rose Golden Cookies

These are absolutely decadent cookies that I loved growing up. They are a favorite of my mothers, too. The easy layers make them a snap to make - but they are so rich. Sweetened condensed milk really sits on your stomach! So make these for a crowd and cut small pieces. :)

1 cup graham cracker crumbs
1/4 cup margerine, melted

Mix crumbs and margerine together, press down into an 8x8 pan.

In layers on top add:

-One layer of sweetened shredded coconut, spread generously.
-One layer of melted chocolate (made with 8 oz of chocolate chips melted with 1 stick butter)
-1 can of sweetened condensed milk
-3/4 cup coarsly chopped nuts, walnuts or pecans are best

Bake at 350 degrees for 1/2 and hour, allow to cool completely before cutting (unless you like a mushy cookie in a bowl, which is fine too).
