S'More's Cookie Bars and a Dedication!

This is an exciting day for me!  This is my first opportunity to share wonderful recipes with anyone I can talk into visiting. I hope you will love cooking them as much as I do.  This first post is dedicated to my sister who gave me the recipe (it was only mildly adapted).  She was one of the first in my life to introduce me to the fun and creative world of cooking.  

Thanks, Peggy!

So here goes!

S'Mores Cookie Bars

1 cup butter, softened                         2 cups flour               

1 1/2 cups packed brown sugar       2 cups graham cracker crumbs (12 crackers)

2 eggs, beaten                                     1 tsp. baking powder

                                                                1/4 tsp. salt 

2 cups marshmallow cream

2 cups milk chocolate chips

1-2 cups mini marshmallows 

Preheat oven to 350. Line a 9x13 inch pan with foil leaving a 2-inch overhang on the ends.  Spray with cooking spray.  Soften butter in microwave for a few seconds on defrost.

In a large bowl, using an electric mixer, beat butter and sugar until light and creamy, about 2 minutes.  Beat in eggs until combined.  

Reduce mixer speed then slowly beat in dry ingredients (flour, graham cracker crumbs, baking powder and salt) that have been combined in a separate bowl. 

Divide dough in half

                                Press dough into pan until dough is flat and uniform

                                       Spread marshmallow topping over the dough 

                   Sprinkle chocolate chips and mini marshmallows evenly on top of that.

                                          Scatter remaining dough on top in clumps. 

 Don't worry about covering the top, the marshmallows and chocolate chips should peek through.  Bake until golden brown.  

                           About 30 - 35 minutes.  Cool completely.  Remove from pan.

                                       Peel off foil and cut into bars.  Eat some now!
