S'mores Bars
This summertime treat starts with a crunchy graham cracker crust, then a layer of milk chocolate, piled high with lightly-toasted marshmallows, then topped with a mini Hershey candy bar. We're sure you'll say "s'mmmore please!"
Servings: 16
Ingredients
- 1/2 c. butter softened
- 3/4 c. granulated sugar
- 1 lg. egg
- 1 tsp. vanilla
- 1 1/3 c. all-purpose flour
- 3/4 c. graham cracker crumbs
- 1 tsp. baking powder
- 1/4 tsp. salt
- 6 (1.55 oz.) each Hershey's milk chocolate bars broken into mini bars
- 3 c. miniature marshmallows
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Grease and line the bottom an 8-inch square baking pan with parchment paper.
- In a large bowl with an electric mixer, cream together butter and sugar, add egg and vanilla, beat until smooth.
- In another bowl, combine flour, graham cracker crumbs, baking powder and salt. Slowly add flour mixture to the butter mixture and beat until blended. Press 2/3 of the dough into prepared pan. Bake for 15 minutes.
- Remove pan from oven. Lay mini chocolate bars over baked layer (reserving 16+ pieces for garnish). Sprinkle marshmallows over the chocolate bars. Scatter bits of remaining dough over the marshmallows. Bake for another 10 to 15 minutes or until lightly browned.
- Cool completely in pan. Top with reserve chocolate bars. Remove from pan and cut into 16 bars.
- Cook's Note: To make cutting bars easier, after cooling at room temperature, refrigerate bars for a couple of hours, then remove from pan and cut into 16 squares.
