So…I think just about everyone on Earth likes s’mores.
S’mores are such a popular “flavor” right now. Everyone is going crazy pinning s’more recipes on Pinterest, including myself. It’s such a classic childhood favorite that carries sweetly through to adulthood. It seems as though we enjoy them even more as adults though….the s’mores ice cream in my freezer right being the proof. Can’t.stop.eating.it.
So, I decided to make s’mores bars because I’ve never had one before and I imagined they would be just as good if not better than the real deal.
Well, my friends, s’mores bars are THE BEST THING EVER. They taste just like a traditional s’more but gooier, chewier, and way more satisfying. I think my mom said it best when she said “those s’more bars? are like reeeaaalllyy good.” I said, “thanks Ma!”
They have a buttery chewy graham cracker crust, a layer of dark chocolate chips, and topped with puffy, golden brown, mini marshmallows. These are pretty simple to make too – make some dough, bake, then add chocolate and marshmallows, bake some more, then turn on your broiler and watch those fluffy bundles of goodness brown up.
The hardest part is waiting for them to cool before cutting into them. I was in a hurry to my sisters to stuff my face so I stuck them in the freezer and it helped speed up the process. If you can’t wait for them to cool, go ahead and dig in, it will just be a wonderfully gooey mess though. Messy is good…when it involves marshmallows, chocolate, and graham crackers.
The chewy goodness is still stuck in my teeth. Savoring every bite my friends. 😉
