S'mores Bars

S'mores Bars

A great s'mores treat if you don't have access to a fire! These gooey bars taste just like the real thing, but a little bit less messy.

I decided to make these at 5:45am this morning because I woke up for not reason and already had booked a gym class for tonight so no reason to go in the AM too. Also, I was supposed to go to my parents lake house for the long weekend, but Maine decided to have crappy weather, so a real fire may be out of the question. These gooey, chocolaty, marshmallow bars are my comprimise.


Servings: 8"x 8" pan        Prep time: 10 minutes

Bake time: 30 minutes     Total time: 40 minutes

INGREDIENTS

  • 1 stick (1/2 cup) butter, melted
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 cup packed dark brown sugar
  • 1 tablespoon vanilla
  • 3/4 cup + 2 tablespoons flour
  • 7 graham crackers, chopped
  • 1 cup mini marshmallows (or regular marshmallows, cut into quarters)
  • 3 Hershey's chocolate bars. chopped

Step 1: Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Whisk together melted butter and egg until smooth

Step 2: Add in brown sugar and vanilla and whisk until combined, then add flour (do not over mix)

Step 3: Fold in the graham crackers, marshmallows and chocolate until evenly combined.

Step 4: Prepare an 8"x 8" pan by lining it with foil and spraying with cooking spray or butter.

Step 5; Pour batter into the prepared pan and press down until flat on top. Bake for 30 minutes.

Step 5: Let cool for an hour until chilled, then remove from pan. To cut the bars, I used a large buttered knife to prevent the bars from sticking to the knife as much.
