1-How to Prepare the Perfect Smores Bars: Step-by-Step Guide Ready to dive into making these delicious Smores Bars? Start by preheating your oven to 325ยฐF (163ยฐC) and lining a 9ร13 inch baking pan with parchment paper for easy removal later. Mix the crushed graham crackers with melted butter and press it firmly into the bottom of the pan, then pop it in the freezer to set quickly. This step creates a solid base that holds everything together.
2-Next, in a mixing bowl, blend the granulated sugar, brown sugar, and melted butter until smooth, then add the eggs and vanilla extract and mix well. In another bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt before folding it into the sugar mixture. Stir in the chocolate chips and mini marshmallows to add that gooey texture we all love in a Smores Bars recipe.
3-Spread the cookie dough evenly over the chilled crust, then scatter the chocolate pieces, graham cracker pieces, and extra mini marshmallows on top for a fun, layered effect. Bake for 35 to 45 minutes until the bars turn golden brown, and let them cool completely before cutting. Total preparation time is about 2 hours and 15 minutes, including cooling, and tips like using parchment paper overhang make it even simpler.
