For anyone who was curious, this is the recipe for the cookies i mentioned earlier. They are kinda like 7-layer bars, if you've ever made those.

Ingredients:
1 cube of butter or margarine (i think this just means one stick)
1+1/2 cups graham cracker crumbs
1 can Borden's sweetened condensed milk
2 cups semi sweet chocolate chips
1+1/3 cups coconut flakes
1 cup chopped nuts

Cooking Instructions:
Heat oven to 350 degreed F. Melt butter in a 9x13 inch baking pan in the oven (be careful not to burn the butter). Remove the pan and pout the cracker crumbs on the butter. Spread evenly across the bottom of the pan. Pour the sweetened condensed milk evenly on top of the cracker crumb layer, then pour the remaining ingredients evenly on top, one at a time. Lightly press the top*. Bake 25 to 30 minutes until the top is golden brown. Remove to a cooling rack and cut into 24 to 36 pieces when cooled.

*pressing down layers is very important–if you don't, the cookies will come out weird.

If you want to store them for a while or keep them from getting too melty in the summer, you can store them in the freezer. Just put them on a plate and seal them in with tin foil or plastic wrap.
