How To Make s’mores bars

• 1

  To Make The Brownies: Position a rack in the lower third of the oven and preheat the oven to 325 degrees.
• 2

  Line the bottom and sides of a 9x13-inch baking pan with parchment paper. Lightly grease with cooking spray.
• 3

  Then line the bottom of the pan with tightly-packed graham crackers in a single layer. Set aside.
• 4

  Combine the butter, sugar, cocoa, and salt in a medium microwave-safe bowl.
• 5

  Microwave for one minute intervals, stirring in between, until the butter is melted and the mixture is smooth.
• 6

  Set the mixture aside until it cools to room temperature. (You can pop it in the fridge to speed up this process.)
• 7

  Stir in the vanilla.
• 8

  Add the eggs one at a time, stirring vigorously after each one. When the batter looks thick, shiny, and well blended.
• 9

  Add the flour and stir until you cannot see it any longer, then beat vigorously for 40 strokes with the wooden spoon or a rubber spatula.
• 10

  Spread evenly in the baking pan on top of the graham crackers. (Since this is a thick batter, I found that it worked well to drop the dough in large tablespoons all over the graham crackers, and then smooth those out with a spoon to form an even layer of brownie batter.)
• 11

  Bake until a toothpick inserted into the center emerges slightly moist with batter, 20 to 25 minutes.
• 12

  Remove pan and sprinkle generously with mini marshmallows.
• 13

  Turn oven to broil, then return the pan to the oven and cook for about 3-5 minutes, or until the marshmallows poof up and JUST barely begin to turn golden
• 14

  Please watch very carefully at this point, or else the marshmallows can burn or even catch fire.
• 15

  Remove pan from oven and sprinkle with Hershey's bar pieces and Golden Graham's.
• 16

  Then drizzle with additional melted chocolate if desired. Let cool, then cut and serve.
• 17

  To make the melted chocolate: Add a crumbled Hershey's bar to a microwave-proof bowl. Heat in 30-second intervals, stirring between each interval, until melted.
• 18

  If the chocolate is too thick, add in a few teaspoons of shortening to thin it out.
• 19

  Drizzle with a fork over the s'mores bars.
