Campfire Vibes Without the Campfire Baked S'mores Bars

I mean, who doesn’t adored S’mores in the summer?! I know that my family does! Today I’m sharing a recipe for Classic S’more Bars, which are basically S’mores in a bar form. You can finally make them without the campfire! These do take a couple of more ingredients than regular S’mores because you need a graham cracker crust instead of just graham crackers, but that’s really the main difference.
To get started making these line your baking sheet with parchment paper. It might seem like overkill to emphasize this, but you really want to make sure that the bars are easy to lift out of the pan and cut. There’s nothing worse than going through all the trouble of baking s’mores bars only to have them get stuck in the pan! Then, make the crust and press it in until very solid and bake it until nice and toasted.
Once the crust is made, you’re almost done! Scatter the chocolate chips and marshmallows on top and you’re good to go after one more pass in the oven. There have been times when I’ve used chopped up Hershey bars instead of chocolate chips and they’ve tasted amazing, too. Either way, you really can’t go wrong. You’ll absolutely love the final result.
In the oven the chocolate chips will melt and the marshmallows will be nice and toasty just like they’ve been close to the fire. Remove them from the oven and allow them to cool a little bit before cutting. You’ll need a really sharp knife to cut these precisely. Serve them up to people on plates or just let them eat with their hands. Sometimes I put a square into a bowl and add a scoop of vanilla ice cream on top with some hot fudge and it makes the most decadent dessert.
You’ll love this wonderful dessert; it really is a great spin on a summer favorite!
