Recipe for Warm Toasted Marshmallow S’mores Bars
Ingredients
- 1 pouch (1 lb 1.5 oz) Betty Crocker® sugar cookie mix
- 1 cup graham cracker crumbs
- 1 cup butter or margarine, melted
- 3 cups milk chocolate chips (18 oz)
- 4 1/2 cups miniature marshmallows
Instructions
- Prepare the Base:
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). In a large mixing bowl, combine the sugar cookie mix and graham cracker crumbs. Add the melted butter or margarine and stir until a soft dough forms. Press this mixture evenly into an ungreased 13×9-inch baking pan. - Bake and Add Chocolate:
Place the pan in the oven and bake for 18 to 20 minutes, or until the base is set. As soon as you remove the pan from the oven, sprinkle the chocolate chips evenly over the hot crust. Allow them to sit for 3 to 5 minutes; the residual heat will melt the chocolate. Spread the melted chocolate evenly over the crust to form a smooth layer. - Broil the Marshmallows:
Switch your oven setting to broil. Evenly distribute the miniature marshmallows over the melted chocolate layer. Place the pan back in the oven, positioned about 5 to 6 inches from the broiler, and broil for 20 to 30 seconds or until the marshmallows are toasted to a golden brown. Be sure to watch them closely as they can burn quickly! - Cool and Serve:
Allow the bars to cool in the pan for at least 10 minutes to set before slicing into 6 rows by 4 rows. Serve the bars warm to enjoy the gooey texture at its best. Store any leftovers in an airtight container to keep them fresh.
Enjoy the warm, comforting layers of these Toasted Marshmallow S’mores Bars anytime you crave a bit of sweetness and nostalgia in your day!
