How to Make 5 Star Bars
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
- In a large bowl, cream together the softened margarine and sweetened condensed milk until smooth.
- Add the graham cracker crumbs, shredded coconut, and vanilla extract. Mix until well combined.
- Press the mixture firmly into an ungreased 9x9 inch baking pan.
- Bake for 10 minutes, or until lightly golden brown.
- While the crust is baking, prepare the icing: In a microwave-safe bowl, combine the chopped chocolate bars and vegetable oil.
- Microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring after each, until the chocolate is completely melted and smooth.
- Carefully pour the melted chocolate over the baked crust and spread evenly.
- Refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or until the chocolate is set, before cutting into squares.
- Store leftover bars in the refrigerator. They can also be frozen for longer storage.
