Anyone who knows me, knows that I can't resist a scrumptious campfire roasted marshmellow sandwhiched between chocolate and graham crackers! I absolutely adore this campfire treat. The weather has been chilling down and I have had this thought in my head to make a cookie bar in my oven or to try a smore cupcake. So, I googled around and found this gem of a site. This is where my recipe stems. A loves them, I liked them. I would add a bit more chocolate for my taste. But over all another great recipe!
Please note that I doubled this recipe and I used a cookie sheet to make my bars. The dough does rise slightly but is perfect! I also used 10 bars of hershey chocolate. It came in packs of 6. Hindsight for my tastes. I would use all 12 bars of chocolate. I also used about 12 oz. of fluff.DIRECTIONS
S'more Cookie Bars
•1/2 cup butter, room temperature
•1/4 cup brown sugar
•1/2 cup sugar
•1 large egg
•1 tsp vanilla extract
•1 1/3 cups all purpose flour
•3/4 cup graham cracker crumbs
•1 tsp baking powder
•1/4 tsp salt
•2 king-sized milk chocolate bars (hershey)
•1 1/2 cups marshmallow creme/fluff (not melted marshmallows)
1.Preheat oven to 350°F. Grease an 8-inch square baking pan.
2.In a large bowl, cream together butter and sugar until light. Beat in egg and vanilla. In a small bowl, whisk together flour, graham cracker crumbs, baking powder and salt. Add to butter mixture and mix at a low speed until combined.
3.Divide dough in half and press half of dough into an even layer on the bottom of the prepared pan. Place chocolate bars over dough. 2 king-sized Hershey’s bars should fit perfectly side by side, but break the chocolate (if necessary) to get it to fit in a single layer no more than 1/4 inch thick. Spread chocolate with marshmallow creme or fluff.
Place remaining dough in a single layer on top of the fluff (most easily achieved by flattening the dough into small shingles and laying them together). I lightly floured the service rolled the dough out and then used a spatula to help lift the dough to place onto the fluff. Another helpful tip is to butter your hands so the dough does not stick to your hands.
4.Bake for 30 to 35 minutes, until lightly browned. Cool completely before cutting into bars.
