SSSS'MORE SSSUCCESS!
After the other night's smorefail, I decided to walk away and sleep on it. I awoke in the morning with an idea - more graham cracker! More crumbs!
I made the new and improved bars and took them to my work picnic, and...
These bars were a hit.
I'm being modest... they were a smashing success.
Here is what I came up with. It looks complicated, but trust me it is easier than you think!
(adapted from Beantown Baker)
1/2 cup butter, softened
1/2 cup brown sugar
1/4 cup sugar
1 egg
1 tsp vanilla
1 1/3 cups graham cracker crumbs
3/4 cup flour
1 tsp baking powder
1/4 tsp salt
Beat butter and sugar on high until light and fluffy. Beat in egg and vanilla. In a separate bowl, whisk together graham cracker, flour, baking powder, and salt, then add to butter, sugar, and egg mixture. Stir until incorporated, then spread dough on the bottom of a greased 9x13 pan.
Layer two - brownie
Make a box of milk chocolate brownie mix (you will need 2 eggs, 1/2 - 3/4 cup oil, 1/4 cup water). Add a handful of chocolate chips, then spread on top of the graham cracker dough.
At this point, you will need to bake the brownie/graham dough at 350 degrees for 28 minutes. Let cool for a 5-10 minutes, and turn your oven up to broil for layers three and four.
Layer three - graham cracker crumbs
1/2 cup butter, melted
1 cup graham cracker crumbs
1/2 cup brown sugar
Mix until incorporated. Sprinkle on top of brownie.
Layer four - marshmallow
Sprinkle a layer of mini marshmallows on top of the graham cracker crumbs. Put under the broiler for ~30 seconds. Keep an eye on it - the marshmallows will burn fast!
Get out some knives and forks, and serve while still warm and gooey. Get ready to get crumbs EVERYWHERE :)
Thank you, friends and family, for all your comments and concern. I couldn't have done it without you!
