S'mores Bars

In April our fundraising dinner (Dine and Sign) had a camping theme.  In the church basement we had a tent with a cooler, lanterns and heater set up with a bunch of trees set up behind it.  We served  brats, hotdogs, baked beans, chips and potato salad.  Campfires were going on outside and people had the opportunity to pull up  a lawnchair and make their own s'mores or they could enjoy a cup of dirt, a campfire bar or a s'mores bar.  Here is the recipe for the s'mores bars. . .they were a hit!                      

Ingredients

1 cup butter, melted
1/3 cup white sugar
3 cups graham cracker crumbs
2 cups semisweet chocolate chips
3 cups miniature marshmallows

Directions

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Butter a 9x13 inch baking dish.
In a medium bowl, combine butter, sugar and graham cracker crumbs until well coated. 
Press half of crumb mixture into the bottom of the prepared pan and bake for 5 minutes. 
Top with the chocolate chips, then the marshmallows. 
Sprinkle the remaining graham cracker mixture over the marshmallows and press down with a spatula.
Bake in preheated oven 8-10 minutes, until marshmallows are melted and a little browned. 
Cool completely before cutting into squares.

  1. For the marshmallows to get brown and melty took longer (more like 12-15 min) but watch them so they don't burn!
