Here's two desserts that you need to get the kids to help you out with.

 

LUSCIOUS GOOEY BARS

1 ½ cups graham cracker crumbs

1 can sweetened condensed milk

6 oz. chocolate chips

½ cup chopped nuts

Preheat oven to 350⁰.

Combine all ingredients well.  Put in a well-greased 9"x9" pan.

Bake for 25 minutes until set and cooked through.  It will still be soft and wonderfully gooey.

Cut into pieces that you wish, or cut in half if you are married to a cookie monster.
