S’mores Bars

August 11th is National S’mores Day, so I decided to create a recipe to celebrate this holiday. It is very simple to assemble and you should definitely double or triple the recipe because they disappear quickly!

INGREDIENTS:

1/2 cup + 2Tb graham

cracker crumbs

2/3 cup AP flour

2 sticks unsalted butter (room temperature)

2/3 cup brown sugar

1 tsp vanilla extract

1 cup Nutella

1 (7 oz jar) marshmallow fluff

1 egg

PROCESS:

Preheat oven to 350 degrees and spray a 8″ by 10″ baking dish with cooking spray or make a foil sling and spray the foil with cooking spray.
Combine graham cracker crumbs and flour. Blend to combine.
In the bowl of a stand mixer, add the butter and brown sugar. Beat until light and fluffy, around 3 minutes. Add the vanilla and the egg and beat until well combined. Add the cracker crumb mixture and stir until just incorporated.
Place 2/3 of the dough in the bottom of the prepared dish and press it flat with your hands. Add Nutella and spread it to cover the dough. Add the marshmallow fluff and spread it to cover the Nutella. Place the remaining dough over the previous layer. It is ok if you can see marshmallow fluff poking out.
Bake for 35 minutes until the top layer is golden brown. Let the bars cool before serving.
