S'mores Cookie Bars
Oh wow! If you like S'mores, you are going to love these cookie bars. This is an oven version of the campfire favorite. I found it on According to Kelly and made them last night for our American Idol Premier party (which I can't actually watch until everyone on there can actually sing). My husband and girls love that show!
Ingredients:
1/2 cup (1 stick) butter or margarine, softened
3/4 cup sugar
1 egg
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1-1/3 cups all-purpose flour
3/4 cup graham cracker crumbs
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/4 teaspoon salt4 (1.55 oz. each) HERSHEY'S Milk Chocolate Bars
1 cup marshmallow creme (or a small handful of mini marshmallows, whatever you have on hand)
Directions:
1. Heat oven to 350°F. Grease 8-inch square baking pan (you may want to line it with foil, for easy lifting out & cutting).
2. Beat butter and sugar in large bowl until light and fluffy. Add egg and vanilla; beat well. Stir together flour, graham cracker crumbs, baking powder and salt; add to butter mixture, beating until blended. Press half of dough into prepared pan.
3. Arrange chocolate bars over dough, breaking as needed to fit. Spread with marshmallow creme (or mini marshmallows). Scatter bits of remaining dough over marshmallow; carefully press to form a layer.
4. Bake 30 to 35 minutes or until lightly browned. Cool completely in pan on wire rack. Cut into bars. 16 bars.
Notes: First off, I didn't have marshmallow creme onhand so I used mini marshmallows. A small handful, as noted above, isn't enough to cover everything. Use marshmallows to your own discretion.
