S'mores Bars with Semi Sweet Chocolate

Serves 15 in about 40 minutes. The oven brings sleeves graham crackers and mini marshmallows together.

Ingredients

• 2 sleeves graham crackers (~2 ½ cups crushed)
• 1 ½ sticks unsalted butter (12 tbsp. melted)
• ¼ cup granulated sugar
• 1 (12-ounce) bag mini marshmallows
• 12 ounces semi sweet chocolate chips*

Method

2. Prepare a 9x13-inch baking dish by lining the dish with parchment paper (or foil). Spray the parchment paper with cooking spray and keep it nearby.
3. Crush the graham crackers with a rolling pin in a ziplock bag (You could also use a food processor).
4. In a small bowl melt the butter in the microwave for 30 seconds. Then stir, and microwave another 30 seconds, or until butter is all melted.
5. Stir in the crushed graham crackers and sugar to a large bowl. Mix in the melted butter.
6. Cook for 8 minutes.
7. Lift out from the oven and sprinkle the chocolate chips evenly over the hot crust.
8. Stir in the mini marshmallows in a layer over the top of the chocolate chips.
9. Put back in the oven and bake for 12-17 more minutes, or until the marshmallows are puffed and light golden brown.
10. Lift out from the oven and place on a cooling rack to cool down.
11. When cooled completely, or just a little warm, slice into 15 bars (or whatever size and amount you need).
