Easy Peasy S'more Bars

You have to make these right now!  They are so unbelievably delicious and so easy, start to finish with cleanup and everything takes about 30 minutes.  I was so surprised how quick and easy they came together that I was sure they would be lacking in taste.  Not true, probably the best s'more dessert around.  Now you would think that this dessert would only taste good hot, but you would be wrong, it does taste divine when hot, but even a day or two later this dessert still holds up.  I made this Saturday night after a grueling 23 mile run as my reward and my kids polished off the rest as an after-school snack on Monday and it was still so good.

Easy Peasy S'more Bars
Adapted from: Betty Crocker
Time: 30 minutes!
Yields: 9x13 pan
Print Recipe

1 pouch (1lb 1.5 oz) Betty Crocker sugar cookie mix
1 C graham cracker crumbs crushed
1 C melted butter
1 bag (11.5 oz) milk chocolate chips (2 cups)
1 bag (10.5 oz) miniature marshmallows (I used big marshmallows cut in half because it was what I had on hand)

Heat oven to 375 and line a 13x9 pan with foil lightly sprayed with cooking spray

In a large bowl melt butter using the microwave, then add cookie mix and graham crackers, stir until a soft dough forms.

Press the dough evenly into your 9x13 pan

Bake for 18-20 minutes or until set.  Immediately sprinkle chocolate chips over the top, let stand for a few minutes until the chocolate begins to melt.  Spread the chocolate evenly over the crust.

Sprinkle marshmallows evenly over chocolate and put back in the oven until the marshmallows are puffed and very slightly toasted, about 3-5 minutes.  Watch closely because the marshmallows can burn quickly.  Cool for 5-7 minutes, remove the bars using the foil and cut in to squares.  Be prepared to swoon!

S'more Cookies

I can hardly contain my excitement about this recipe!  I totally made these up and I was so nervous that they would not turn out, but the did and they are my new favorite cookie.  They are sooo good.  You need to give these a try.  While they may be a bit more work than regular s'mores they are much simpler and cleaner to eat.  Especially for kids.  Yummy, I love these, I will be making these all summer long!  I apologize for not getting very good pictures of these, I was too busy eating them to take too much time on a picture, but you get the idea.

S'more Cookies

Yields: 28 cookies
Time: About 1 hour 15 minutes-but worth every second!
Print Recipe

3 C flour
1 t  salt
1 t baking soda
1/2 C butter
1/2 C butter flavored shortening
3/4 C brown sugar
1 C sugar
2 eggs
1 T vanilla
1 package graham crackers, crushed (about 1 1/2 cups)
5 regular size Hershey bars
14 large marshmallows

Pre-heat oven to 350

In a large bowl, mix together the flour, salt and baking soda, set aside.  In another large bowl, cream together the butter, shortening and sugars with an electric mixer for about 2-4 minutes.  Add the eggs and vanilla and beat for another minute.  Slowly add the flour mixture and then the graham crackers.

Now time to create the masterpiece!  Separate your Hershey bars in to two squares each, they don't need to be hooked together.  Cut each marshmallow in half, this works best if the marshmallows are slightly frozen and using kitchen scissors.

Now scoop out a rounded tablespoon of dough and flatten it on your counter top. Place your chocolate on top and then top that with a marshmallow

Scoop out another rounded tablespoon of dough flatten it out and place on top of the marshmallow

Now, scoop the entire structure into your hands and form a nice round ball, place on a parchment lined cookies sheet.

Bake for 10-13 minutes.  Remove from oven and let sit for 3 minutes before transferring to a cool flat surface.
