S’more bars

20130504-205627.jpg

My gym buddy, Jill, brought these tasty dessert bites to a party and they were gone quickly after she opened the container.

Ingredients
18 graham crackers (2 packages)
2 sticks unsalted butter, melted + more for pan
1/4 cup sugar
3 1/2 cups mini marshmallows
3 cups mini-chocolate chips

The process:
1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
2. Line the bottom and sides of 9 by 13 baking pan with foil. You want to leave 4 inches of overhang on the 2 opposite sides. These are going to serve as handles so you can get the bars out of the pan in 1 piece. So make sure you have enough for good grip!
3. Grease the foil well with softened butter.
4. In a food processor grind up the graham crackers into a fine meal – it’ll end up being about 2 cups. Add the sugar and melted butter. It should look and feel like wet sand. Set aside 1/2 cup of the mixture for the topping.
5. Evenly press the remainder into your pan. Bake for about 15 minutes until its a golden brown. Remove and let cool.
6. Melt the chocolate chips over a double boiler or in the microwave.
7. Preheat the boiler.
8. Pour the melted chocolate into the cooled graham crust. Spread evenly and sprinkle the marshmallows over the top. Press them lightly into the chocolate.
9. Sprinkle the reserved crumb mixture over the top and between the marshmallows so you can’t see the chocolate peeking through the marshmallows.
10. Broil the bars 6 inches from the flame until the marshmallows are golden brown. About 1-2 minutes.
11. Refrigerate the bars until the chocolate is hard – about 2 hours. Grab the ends of the foil liner and lift the bars out of the pan in 1 piece.
12. Move to cutting board and cut into 24 squares. Enjoy!
