Recipe: Easy S’mores Bars

While searching Pintrest the other night for yummy desserts, I came across a delicious sounding recipe. After reading, it just seemed so easy to make! I set about making it this afternoon, thinking it would be the perfect dessert on a cold winter night!

S’mores Bars

2 cups crushed graham crackers

2 tablespoons sugar

7 tablespoons melted butter {I used 12 tablespoons}

16 oz of dark chocolate, melted

1 cup of whole milk

2 cups of cocoa pebbles

4 cups of mini marshmallows

Create

Place graham crackers, sugar and melted butter in a bowl and mix to blend. {Note: I used 12 tablespoons of butter instead of the called 7 tablespoons. With the 7 tablespoons, the graham crackers were not sticking together as much.} Firmly press mixture into the bottom of an 11×13 pan and bake for 10-12 minutes at 350 degrees F. Set aside to cool.

Melt chocolate with milk in a pan over medium low heat and whisk to combine. Transfer mixture to a new bowl and set aside for 10 minutes to cool (transferring the mixture to a new bowl will help to cool it faster).

Add cocoa pebbles and 2 cups of marshmallows to cooled chocolate mixture and mix to combine. Pour mixture over crust. Pour remaining 2 cups mini marshmallows on top and place under the broiler for 2-3 minutes to toast tops of marshmallow layer. {Note: 3 minutes was too long for me, I think 1.5-2 minutes would be perfect!} 

Transfer completed dessert to fridge and chill for at least 2-3 hours or overnight.
