Amazing Smore Bars

Ingredients

  • 1 & 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 cup graham cracker crumbs
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/8 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
  • 3/4 cup brown sugar
  • 1 egg
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla
  • 7 ounces marshmallow creme
  • 3-4 Hershey's milk chocolate bars

Directions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350˚F.
  2. Line an 8x8-inch pan with foil and coat with nonstick spray. Allow the foil to hang over the sides of the pan a bit so you can use the foil to remove the bars from the pan later.
  3. Combine the flour, graham cracker crumbs, baking powder, and salt in a medium bowl and set aside.
  4. In the bowl of a stand mixer, cream the butter at medium speed for about 1 minute. Add the brown sugar and continue creaming about 1 minute more. Add the eggs and vanilla, and mix until incorporated.
  5. Scrape down the sides of the bowl, then add the dry ingredients. Mix at low speed until the dough comes together.
  6. Press half of the prepared dough into an even layer in the bottom of the foil-lined pan. Spread the marshmallow creme evenly over the dough. Break up the Hershey bars and arrange them in a layer on top of the marshmallow creme. Scatter the second half of the dough over the top of the chocolate bars in little clumps, leaving space between them so the marshmallow and chocolate can show through.
  7. Bake for 28-30 minutes or until the dough is golden brown. Let the bars cool completely and then use the foil to lift the bars from the pan and cut them into squares.
