Toasted Marshmallow S'mores Bars


Source: Bella's Bistro

So this past weekend was my annual family reunion. We have to bring a dish to pass and dessert. Just a few weeks ago I spotted this recipe in my Google Reader. So when deciding what to take this immediately came to mind. We camp for the weekend, and s'mores go hand in hand with camping, so why not a dessert that tastes like them!?

Ingredients
  • 1 Pouch (1 lb 1.5 oz) Betty Crocker sugar cookie mix
  • 1C. Graham cracker crumbs
  • 1C. Butter or margarine, melted
  • 3C. Chocolate chips (18 oz)
  • 4 1/2C. Miniature marshmallows (used full 6 cups in pkg.)
Preparation
  • Heat oven to 375 degrees.
  • In large bowl, stir together cookie mix and crumbs. Stir in melted butter until soft dough forms. Press into ungreased 13×9-inch pan.
  • Bake 18 to 20 minutes or until set. Immediately sprinkle chocolate chips over crust. Let stand 3 to 5 minutes or until chocolate begins to melt. Spread chocolate evenly over crust.
  • Set oven control to broil. Sprinkle marshmallows over melted chocolate. Broil with top 4 to 5 inches from heat 20 to 30 seconds or until marshmallows are toasted. (Watch closely; marshmallows will brown quickly.) Cool 10 minutes.
  • For bars, cut into 6 rows by 4 rows. Serve warm. Store any remaining bars tightly covered.
Next Time- So I did the first 2 layers ahead of time, and tried to do the marshmallow layer in my grandma's trailer. They had melted a bit, and were a pain to deal with. I think I might try marshmallow fluff next time, since that may be easier to spread. But of course marshmallows not melted should work fine too. These tasted great, so I definitely plan on making them again!
