Magic Bars

Mmmm, these magic bars are delicious!

1 cup butter/margarine softened

1 cup white sugar

1 cup brown sugar

2 eggs

1 tsp vanilla

2 1/4 cup flour

1 tsp baking soda

1/2 tsp salt

2 cups oatmeal

1 cup coconut

2 cups chocolate chips

Mix the butter and sugar. Add the eggs and vanilla and mix well.  In another bowl, mix the flour, baking soda, and salt.  Slowly add these dry ingredients to the wet ingredients.  Once well mixed, add the oatmeal, coconut, and chocolate chips.  Place batter in an ungreased 9x13 pan and bake for 22-25 minutes at 350 degrees.

They are usually pretty gooey when you first pull them out, but if they are brown around the sides its perfect! After they cool, they become less gooey and are amazing.  I made the mistake of thinking they weren't ready the first I made them and left them in longer and then burned the bottom.  

Don't forget to add the magic.
