Coconut Cookie Bars

This looks like a good one so I had to save it to try soon!
24 Keebler Chips Deluxe Triple Chocolate cookies  {crushed to 3 cups}             
3 TBSP butter or margarine, melted
14 oz. {5 1/3 cups} flaked coconut
1 can {14 oz.} sweetened condensed milk
1/2 cup slivered almonds {optional}
2 1/2 cups chocolate chips {about 15 oz.}
2 TBSP vegetable oil
.
In medium bowl combine the 24 crushed KEEBLER CHIPS DELUXE Original cookies and butter.
Press on bottom of ungreased 13 x 9 x 2-inch baking pan.
Bake at 350°F for 10 minutes.
.
Meanwhile,
in large bowl stir together coconut and sweetened condensed milk.
Spoon dollops on crust.
Use two forks to evenly spread coconut mixture over crust. Sprinkle with almonds, if desired. 
Bake at 350°F for 15 to 20 minutes more or until beginning to brown.
.
Meanwhile,
in medium microwave-safe bowl combine chocolatechips and oil.
Micro-cook at high about 1 1/2 minutes or until melted, stirring every 30 seconds.
Evenly spread over baked mixture.
.
Cool
completely on wire rack.
Refrigerate about 1 hour or until chocolate is set.
{Or eat warm if you can't wait!}
