Ingredients
Scale
Primary Ingredients:
- 1 cup graham cracker crumbs
- 1 cup cookie dough (store-bought or homemade)
- 1/2 cup chocolate chips
Binding Ingredients:
- 1/4 cup (4 tablespoons) melted butter
Topping Ingredients:
- 1/2 cup mini marshmallows
Instructions
- Prepare a parchment-lined 8×8-inch baking dish, ensuring overhang for easy removal.
- Combine graham cracker crumbs with melted butter, pressing firmly to create a compact, even base layer across the bottom of the dish.
- Spread cookie dough uniformly over the graham cracker crust, creating a smooth, consistent surface.
- Generously scatter mini marshmallows and chocolate chips across the cookie dough layer, ensuring even distribution.
- Chill the assembled bars in the refrigerator for a minimum of 2 hours to allow the layers to set and flavors to meld.
- Once fully chilled, lift the bars from the dish using the parchment paper overhang and slice into square portions.
- Serve chilled for the best texture and flavor experience.
Notes
- Chill the baking dish beforehand to help the crust set quickly and prevent crumbling when spreading the cookie dough.
- Use gluten-free graham crackers to make this recipe suitable for those with gluten sensitivities, ensuring everyone can enjoy the treat.
- Toast the marshmallows briefly with a kitchen torch for a deeper, caramelized flavor that mimics traditional campfire s’mores.
- Store bars in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 5 days, allowing the flavors to meld and the texture to remain firm and delicious.
