These Gooey S'mores Bars bring all the nostalgia of a campfire treat into your kitchen. With a buttery graham cracker crust, a layer of rich melted chocolate, and perfectly toasted marshmallows, they’re the ultimate comfort dessert.

Ingredients
- 1 cup 2 sticks unsalted butter, melted
- 2 cups graham cracker crumbs
- 2 cups mini marshmallows
- 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 large egg
Instructions
- Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
- Prepare the Crust: In a medium bowl, mix the melted butter with the graham cracker crumbs until well combined. Press the mixture evenly into the bottom of a 9x13-inch baking dish.
- Bake the Crust: Place the crust in the oven and bake for 10 minutes, or until lightly golden. Remove from the oven and let it cool slightly.
- Add Marshmallows and Chocolate: Evenly sprinkle the mini marshmallows and chocolate chips over the baked crust.
- Prepare the Topping: In a separate bowl, whisk together the sugar, salt, vanilla extract, and egg until smooth. Pour this mixture evenly over the marshmallows and chocolate.
- Bake the Bars: Return the baking dish to the oven and bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and the marshmallows are melted.
- Cool and Serve: Allow the bars to cool completely in the pan before cutting them into squares. Enjoy your gooey, chocolatey S'mores Bars!
Notes
- Pack the crust tightly: Use the back of a measuring cup to press the graham cracker crust firmly for a sturdy base.
- Watch closely while baking: The marshmallows can brown quickly, so check frequently during the final baking stage.
- Cool completely: Allow the bars to cool fully before cutting to ensure clean slices.
