Super Easy and Delicious S’more Cookie Bars

If you are looking for a super simple dessert that is absolutely delicious, I have just the treat for you! I got this idea from a reel on social media, where the creator made everything by hand. Someone in the comments said that they had tried but they “cheated” by using store-bought cookie dough. I made it after I read that comment, and I found it okay but not something I’d make again.

Cut to about two weeks later, and my son is asking me to make it again. I sigh a little, as I did not care for it that much, but go to look for the recipe again. I don’t know how, but I could not for the life of me find it again. I searched through saved posts, liked posts, and even watch history! It was just gone. So, I figured I could remember most of it, wing the rest, and maybe make a few twists to make it better. Not being able to find the recipe turned out to be the best thing!

Quick Rundown of Ingredients

The first swap I made was to grab cinnamon graham crackers (I used Great Value brand), as those are my favorite. I still used the Pillsbury prepared cookie dough, but this time grabbed two packages as I felt a little short before. The previous time I used the regular marshmallows, but this time I grabbed Jet Puffed mini marshmallows. Finally, and I feel like mostly importantly, I grabbed a Cadbury Caramello bar. Cadbury is far superior to Hershey’s, plus the caramel here is essential.

The graham crackers stay together surprisingly well and, once cut, you can easily scoop out and hold your cookie bar. It is a soft, sweet, and decadent treat that even stays soft and delicious the next day.

Ingredients Equipment Method

Ingredients

  

• 5-7 pieces Cinnamon Graham Crackers
• 2* packages Pillsbury Ready to Bake Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough *You will only use 1/3 of the second package
• 10 oz bag Mini Marshmallows
• 4 oz bar Cadbury Caramello

Equipment

• 1 Square Pan (8×8" is what I used)

Method

 

1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit,
2. Add enough cinnamon graham crackers to cover the bottom of your pan. An 8×8" pan will use around 4.5 graham crackers.
Put the cinnamon face up so it doesn't fall off into the pan.
3. Open one package of cookie dough, smoosh each cookie down, and place it on top of the graham crackers. Once done, press down gently to make the layer as even as possible without breaking the graham crackers underneath.
If you leave the cookie dough out of the refrigerator for 5 minutes, it will be much easier to smoosh.
4. Cover the cookie dough with mini marshmallows. Measure this with your heart! I use ~2/3 of the package.
5. Open your second package of cookie dough, smoosh down the dough pieces, and add them on top of the marshmallows. I use about 1/3 of the cookie dough package for this, but add as little or as much as you want.
6. Break the Caramello bar into individual squares. Lightly smoosh each one before pressing it into the top. This part is a bit messy, but it helps the candy stick, and the chocolate does not melt enough to let the caramel out otherwise.
7. Bake at 350F for around 18 minutes. You are looking for the marshmallows to be lightly toasted and for some light browning to have started on the cookie pieces. Let it cool down a bit before serving.
