S’mores Cookie Bar
This S’mores Cookie Bar has all the thrill of the amazing stuff you love without the campfire.
I personally love a good s’more but I often would like to indulge in that gooey dessert when there is no campfire or it’s just too hot outside to make one.
Enter this S’mores Cookie Bar. Gooey & delicious just like your memories of making them as a kid on camping trips but taken up a level to adulthood. Of course, kids will love these bars too.
You can see from the picture above, I cut these while they were still warm & the chocolate oozes out but if you let them cool completely, you get more of a chocolate fudge texture wrapped up in a cookie base & topped with marshmallows. Either way, I think you’ll love them as much as we do.
And I’ve found a genius way of cutting bar recipes. I use this pizza cutter to cut perfect squares. Just be sure that you use parchment paper as a base of any bar recipe, that way you can lift them right out & cut them straight across.
S’mores Cookie Bar
INGREDIENTS
1 cup almond flour
1/4 cup coconut sugar
4 tablespoons honey
3 tablespoons ghee, melted
1 tablespoon vanilla
1 teaspoon baking powder
1 teaspoon cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 - 10 ounce bag chocolate chunks
2 cups vegan mini-marshmallows
DIRECTIONS
preheat the oven to 350°.
line an 8x8 dish with parchment paper, leaving enough hanging out to use as handles to lift the bar out when done.
combine almond flour, coconut sugar, baking powder, cinnamon, baking soda & salt together in a medium glass bowl.
combine the melted ghee, honey & vanilla together in a small measuring cup. pour the liquid into the dry mix & stir well.
press the cookie dough layer evenly into the bottom of the dish, all the way to the edges. bake 20-22 minutes. the edges will look done but the cookie may still look “dough like” but that is fine.
once baked, remove from the oven & sprinkle chocolate chunks in an even layer, then top with a layer of the marshmallows.
place back in the oven for 3-4 minutes, then turn on low broil for an additional 3-4 minutes. Watch closely during the broiling because it will go from golden brown to burnt very quickly!
allow to cool in the pan at least 1 hour, then remove & cut into squares. store at room temperature.
