Smores Bars By Anna Olson Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Lightly coat a quarter-size baking sheet with cooking spray, then line with parchment, allowing for a 2-inch overhang on the long sides. Coat the parchment with cooking spray.
• Whisk together the all-purpose flour, whole-wheat flour, baking powder and salt. Set aside.
• In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, beat together the butter, brown sugar and honey for about 2 minutes. Add the eggs and vanilla; mix until light and fluffy, scraping down the sides of the bowl. Gradually mix in the flour mixture until fully combined.
• Fold into the batter 3 cups of the marshmallows, 1 cup of the chocolate chips, all of the caramel bits, and half of the graham cracker pieces.
• Spread the batter into the prepared baking sheet; sprinkle the remaining 1 cup chocolate chips and graham cracker pieces over the top. Transfer to the oven and bake for 25 minutes. Remove from the oven, top with remaining 1 cup marshmallows, and then bake for another 5 minutes.
• Cool on a rack, then refrigerate to chill for easier cutting.
• Cut into bars, being careful to remove parchment before serving.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Line the bottom and sides of a 9 by 13-inch baking pan with foil. You want to leave about 4 inches of overhang on the 2 opposite sides. These are going to serve as your handles to remove the bars from the pan in 1 piece, so make sure that there is enough of the overhang for you to have a solid grip. Grease the foil well with the softened butter.
• In your food processor, grind the graham crackers into a fine meal (you need 2 cups). In a large bowl, combine your crumbs with the sugar, sea salt and melted butter. The mixture should look and feel like wet sand. Set aside a heaping 1/2 cup of the crumb mixture for the topping. Evenly press the remaining crumb mixture into the bottom the foil-lined pan. Pop your crust into the oven and bake until it is golden brown and your kitchen smells of graham crackers, 12 to 15 minutes. Remove the crust from the oven and allow it to cool on a rack or on a dishtowel on your counter.
• Melt the milk chocolate in a saucepan over low heat, stirring continuously until fully melted. Do not turn up the heat to hurry this process, you must keep it on low. Alternately, you can microwave the chocolate on low power, stirring after 2 minutes. Once the chocolate is fully melted, it's time to add the chipotle pepper powder, if using, and stir it in completely.
• Preheat the broiler.
• Pour the melted chocolate over the cooled graham cracker crust. Spread the chocolate evenly over the crust with a butter knife. Sprinkle the marshmallows over the chocolate and press them lightly into the chocolate. Sprinkle the reserved crumb mixture over and in between the marshmallows so that you cannot see the chocolate peaking through the marshmallows. Broil the bars 6 inches from the flame until the marshmallows are golden brown, 1 to 2 minutes.
• Refrigerate the bars until the chocolate is hard, 2 hours or so. Grab the ends of the foil liner and lift the bars out of the pan in 1 piece. Move to a cutting board and cut into 24 squares.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Grease an 8-by-8-inch baking dish with butter.
• In a large bowl combine the butter and brown sugar. Using a hand mixer, blend until fluffy, about 2 minutes. Add the vanilla extract and eggs and mix on medium speed until combined, about 1 minute.
• In a separate bowl combine the flour, graham cracker crumbs, baking powder and salt. With the mixer running, slowly add the dry mixture into the wet mixture, and mix until a dough forms.
• Transfer the dough to the prepared baking dish and pat out in an even layer to cover the bottom of the pan. Top the dough with the chocolate chips and marshmallows.
• Bake until the marshmallows are browned and the dough is cooked through, 20 to 25 minutes. Cool to room temperature, then slice into 2-by-2-inch squares.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Line an 8x8-inch square pan with aluminum foil, leaving a 1-inch overhang on sides.
• Crumble graham crackers in a bag; pour into a bowl. Stir in butter and brown sugar until well mixed. Press graham cracker mixture into bottom of pan to form crust.
• Bake in preheated oven until crust is lightly browned and smells toasted, about 7 minutes.
• Remove pan from oven; cover crust evenly with marshmallows. Sprinkle chocolate chips over marshmallows.
• Bake in preheated oven until chocolate chips are melted and marshmallows are browned, about 3 minutes.
• Let s'mores rest in pan until cool, about 30 minutes. Refrigerate until set, about 45 minutes. Remove from pan and cut into squares.

Steps:

• Directions: S'mores Bars 1. Preheat oven to 350 °F and grease a 9-inch square pan. Line pan with parchment paper so that paper hangs over two sides of the pan. Line bottom of pan with a single layer of whole graham crackers (about 4 ½ crackers). 2. In a saucepot, melt butter and stir in brown sugar, milk and vanilla until dissolved. Remove from heat and stir in graham cracker crumbs (this will make a soft paste). Spread half of the graham mixture over the cracker-lined pan. Sprinkle with a third of the chocolate chunks and half of the marshmallows. Top marshmallows with another layer of whole graham crackers and spread remaining graham mixture over top. Top with another third of chocolate chunks and the remaining marshmallows. Finish with a last sprinkle of chocolate chunks and bake for 12 minutes, until marshmallows have browned. Cool completely before slicing. 3. S'mores Bars can be stored in an airtight container for 3 days.
