S'Mores Bars



Here are we again, right back to my s'mores obsession. After I made these bars and took my first bite I had a moment of ahhh here we meet again. I don't know what it is about the chocolate, marshmallow and graham cracker combination that sends my heart a flutter but it's there and I always find myself going back for more. In fact, I'm munching on one of these, this very moment as I type up this post.

I came up with this recipe through a little trial and error. I had originally searched a bunch of recipes but none were exactly what I was looking for, I wanted something dense and more bar like than cake or cookie and I wanted to nix the graham layer on top and have the marshmallows star. I love how these came out, they have the perfect balance of chocolate, graham and marshmallow. The only mistake I made was trying to cut the bars before they fully cooked with only resulted in a huge sticky mess. Once they cooled fully they cut quite nicely and came out perfect.

Chocolate & Oat Cookie Bars

This is yet another one of my favorite treats from my childhood. It isn't quite a cookie or a blondie...it's almost as though you took the two and combined them to get this amazing treat. There's only a few ingredients and you can make this in a pinch since most of the ingredients are always on hand at home for most people.

It's always a crowd pleaser and the kind of dessert you definitely want to make for company because if you have them at home you will eat them!
