2. Crush the Crackers: Take your box of Ritz crackers and crush them into small pieces. You want them to be small but not crumbs. This will give your base a fantastic texture!

3. Add Skor Bits: Once your crackers are crushed, add in the entire bag of Skor bits. This adds a delightful toffee crunch to your bars. Mix everything together well.

4. Mix in Condensed Milk: Now, pour in the can of condensed milk into the cracker and Skor bit mixture. Thoroughly mix everything together until you have a sticky, delicious base.

5. Create the Base: Transfer the mixture into your prepared baking pan. Use a spatula or the back of a spoon to pat it down evenly into the pan. This will be the foundation of your Surprise Bars!

6. Bake the Base: Pop your pan into the preheated oven and bake for approximately 15 minutes. You want the base to be set and just starting to turn golden brown around the edges.

7. Chocolate Layer: Once the base is baked, remove the pan from the oven. Sprinkle the entire bag of chocolate chips evenly over the top of the warm base. The residual heat will help them melt.

8. Melt the Chocolate: Place the pan back into the oven for about 2 minutes. This will allow the chocolate chips to soften and melt slightly.

9. Spread Evenly: Take the pan out of the oven again and, using a spatula, spread the melted chocolate evenly over the top of the bars. This chocolate layer is what ties everything together!

10. Cool and Cut: Now comes the hardest part—waiting! Allow your Surprise Bars to cool completely in the pan. Once cooled, use a sharp knife to cut them into neat bars.

11. Enjoy!: Serve these delightful Surprise Bars at your next gathering, potluck, or simply as a sweet treat for yourself and loved ones. Watch them disappear in no time!

These Surprise Bars are a true crowd-pleaser, perfect for any occasion where you want a simple, yet incredibly delicious dessert. So go ahead, make a batch, and savor every sweet, crunchy, chocolaty bite! 🤤✨
