Ingredients

Base

  • 8–10 graham crackers

Cookie Dough

  • 1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter, at room temperature
  • 3/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 3/4 cup light brown sugar, packed
  • 2 large eggs, at room temperature
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 3 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
  • 1 cup mini marshmallows

Topping

  • Additional mini marshmallows (for sprinkling)
  • 2 Hershey’s chocolate bars

Instructions

  1. Preheat and prepare pan: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a 9×13-inch baking dish with parchment paper, making sure to leave an overhang on the sides for easy removal of the bars later.
  2. Arrange graham crackers: Place the graham crackers in a single layer on the bottom of the prepared pan, breaking them into pieces as needed to cover the entire surface evenly. Set aside.
  3. Make cookie dough: In a mixing bowl, use an electric mixer to beat together the butter, granulated sugar, and light brown sugar until the mixture is smooth and creamy. Add in the eggs and vanilla extract, then mix until fully combined.
  4. Incorporate dry ingredients and mix-ins: Gradually add the flour, salt, and baking soda to the wet ingredients, mixing just until combined. Fold in the semi-sweet chocolate chips and mini marshmallows to distribute evenly throughout the dough.
  5. Assemble cookie layer: Using a spoon, scoop portions of the cookie dough onto the graham cracker base, then press down evenly to create a uniform layer across the pan. Sprinkle additional mini marshmallows evenly over the top for extra gooeyness.
  6. Bake the bars: Place the pan in the preheated oven and bake for 20-30 minutes, or until the cookie layer turns golden brown and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. If the top browns too quickly, tent with foil to prevent burning.
  7. Add chocolate topping and cool: Remove the pan from the oven and immediately place pieces of the Hershey’s chocolate bars on top. Allow the bars to cool thoroughly so that the chocolate melts slightly and becomes gooey.
  8. Serve: Lift the bars out of the pan using the parchment paper overhang and slice into squares. Enjoy the delicious S’mores Cookie Bars warm or at room temperature!

Notes

  • For easier slicing, allow bars to cool completely before cutting.
  • Use parchment paper with an overhang to easily lift bars out of the pan.
  • If you prefer, substitute the Hershey’s chocolate bars with your favorite chocolate for variety.
  • Store leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.
  • Mini marshmallows can be added directly into the dough and sprinkled on top for extra gooey texture.
