Description
S’mores Cookie Bars are soft, chewy cookie bars with layers of graham crackers, marshmallow creme, and chocolate chips, perfect for any sweet treat craving.
Ingredients
- ½ cup (113g) unsalted butter, softened
- ¾ cup (150g) packed light or dark brown sugar
- 1 large egg, room temperature
- 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
- 1 cup (125g) all-purpose flour
- 1 cup (120g) graham cracker crumbs (about 8 full sheets)
- ½ teaspoon baking powder
- ¼ teaspoon salt
- 1 cup (180g) semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 1 heaping cup marshmallow creme (store-bought or homemade)
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350°F (177°C). Line an 8- or 9-inch square pan with parchment paper, leaving an overhang.
- Cream butter and brown sugar using a mixer on medium-high speed for 2 minutes. Add egg and vanilla; beat until combined. Mixture may look curdled, which is okay.
- Whisk flour, graham cracker crumbs, baking powder, and salt. Add to wet ingredients and mix on medium speed until combined.
- Press 2/3 of the dough into the prepared pan to form a thin layer. Spread marshmallow creme evenly on top.
- Sprinkle chocolate chips evenly over the marshmallow layer. Mold remaining dough into flat pieces and layer on top; some marshmallow and chocolate may remain exposed.
- Bake 25-30 minutes until the top is lightly golden. Cool completely on a wire rack.
- Lift out bars using parchment overhang and cut into squares. Store leftovers at room temperature up to 1 week.
Notes
- Ensure the butter is softened for easier mixing.
- Be careful not to overbake; the bars should be golden and slightly firm around the edges.
- You can use homemade or store-bought marshmallow creme for convenience.
