That Time I Invented S'mores Cookie Bars...

With summer in full swing, I wanted something summer-feeling to take to a couple of parties my friends were throwing, so s'mores cookies felt like an appropriate treat. I wrote this recipe 4 years ago and decided to bring it on back. Enjoy them this summer with all of their marshmallow-y, chocolate-y, graham-cracker-y deliciousness!

(Printable recipe)

Ingredients:

1 cup flour
1 1/4 cup ground graham crackers (9 crackers), divided
1 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp salt
3/4 cup butter (1 1/2 sticks)
3/4 cup sugar
1/2 cup brown sugar
1 tsp vanilla
2 eggs
1 1/4 cup milk chocolate chips, divided
1 cup mini marshmallows, divided

Directions...

1) Preheat oven to 350º
2) Combine flour, 1 cup ground graham cracker, baking powder and salt in a small mixing bowl and set aside.
3) In a large bowl, cream butter and sugars together.
4) Add in vanilla and then one egg at at time.
5) Mix in 1/2 c of the flour/graham cracker mixture until it is all incorporated.
6 Stir in 3/4 cup chocolate chips and 1 cup marshmallows.
7) Spray 13x9" baking pan with cooking spray and sprinkle remaining ground graham crackers, shaking gently to coat evenly.

8) Drop blobs of dough onto into the baking pan and gently flatten dough over the layer of graham cracker. A cooking-spray-coated spatula does this well.
9) sprinkle remaining chocolate chips over, and press remaining marshmallows into, the surface of the dough.
9) Chill in freezer for at least 1 hour or overnight. *Because of this step I recommend not using a glass baking pan, as it could break when it hits the oven.
10) Bake for 25-30 minutes.
11) Cool completely then cut into bars.
