Serves:
Ingredients
- ½cupbutter,salted, softened to room temperature
- Âľcuplight brown sugar,packed
- 1tsppure vanilla extract
- 1large egg,at room temperature
- 1cupall-purpose flour,spoon and leveled
- 1cupgraham cracker crumbs,(9 graham crackers)
- ½tspbaking powder
- 1ÂĽcupschocolate chips,semi-sweet
- 1cupmarshmallow creme,heaping
Instructions
-
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
-
Line an 8Ă—8-inch or 9Ă—9-inch square baking pan with aluminum foil, leaving enough overhang on the sides to easily remove the bars when they have cooled.
-
Set aside.
-
In a large bowl using a handheld or stand mixer fitted with a paddle attachment, cream the butter and brown sugar together on medium-high speed.
-
Beat for about 2 minutes until smooth and combined, then add the vanilla extract and egg, beating until combined.
-
Scrape the sides of the bowl down as needed.
-
Set aside.
-
Toss the flour, graham cracker crumbs, and baking powder together until combined.
-
With the mixer running on low, slowly add the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients.
-
Mix until combined.
-
Press â…” of the graham cookie dough into the prepared pan.
-
Spread the marshmallow creme on top. This will be tricky since the marshmallow creme is so sticky, but do the best to get an even layer.
-
Spray the bottom of a spatula with nonstick spray to spread it around, if desired.
-
Sprinkle the marshmallow creme with chocolate chips.
-
Mold the remaining cookie dough into flat pieces and layer on top of the chocolate chips.
-
There won’t be enough dough to make one single layer, so some chocolate chips will be exposed, but that’s okay.
-
Bake the bars for 25 minutes, or until the top is lightly golden brown.
-
Allow to cool completely with the pan set on a wire rack before cutting into squares.
