Bar cookies are always brilliant, but these Hello Dollies are extra brilliant because salty Ritz crackers add balance to an otherwise strictly sweet treat.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Line an 8 x 8-inch (20 x 20-cm)or 9 x 9-inch (23 x 23-cm) baking dish with parchment paper.
- In a large bowl, combine the crumbs from 35 smashed crackers and melted butter. Press the mixture into the bottom of the baking dish. Sprinkle the chocolate chips, peanut butter chips,nuts and coconut over the cracker layer. Drizzle the condensed milk over the top, trying to make it reasonably even. I use a spoon and slowly drizzle the milk, spoonful by slow spoonful. Sprinkle the remaining crushed crackers over the top of the milk.
- Bake for about 25 minutes, or until the coconut is golden brown and the edges are nicely toasted. Let the bars cool for at least an hour. Cut into small triangles by first cutting 9 squares, the cutting each square in half on the diagonal to get 18 triangles.Store the bars in the fridge.

Tips:
- Measuring Ingredients Accurately: Use measuring cups and spoons to ensure the correct proportions of ingredients. For dry ingredients, use the spoon and level method by scooping the ingredient into the measuring spoon and leveling it off with a knife.
- Room Temperature Ingredients: Bring ingredients like butter, eggs, and milk to room temperature before starting. This helps them incorporate smoothly into the batter and results in a more even bake.
- Mixing Batter: Avoid overmixing the batter, as this can lead to a tough texture. Mix only until the ingredients are just combined.
- Baking Times and Temperatures: Strictly follow the recipe's instructions for baking times and temperatures. Ovens can vary, so it's important to adjust the baking time if necessary.
- Cooling Before Cutting: Allow the bars to cool completely before cutting them into squares. This helps prevent them from crumbling.
