Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9x13-inch baking dish or line it with parchment paper for easier removal.
Unroll the crescent roll dough and press it into the bottom of the prepared baking dish to form an even layer.
In a small saucepan, melt the unsalted butter over medium heat. Stir in the sweetened condensed milk, vanilla extract, and salt. Mix until well combined, then remove from heat.
Pour the condensed milk mixture evenly over the crescent dough layer.
Sprinkle the semisweet chocolate chips evenly over the condensed milk layer, followed by the shredded coconut. Spread gently to ensure even coverage.
Top the coconut with an even layer of chopped pecans.
Using the back of a spatula or spoon, gently press the layers down to adhere them to the condensed milk base.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown and the coconut is lightly toasted.
Allow the bars to cool completely in the pan before cutting into squares or rectangles for serving.
Serve and enjoy your crescent layer bars as a rich, gooey treat!
