CHOCOLATE PEANUT BUTTER S'MORES BARS
Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Line a 9-by-13 straight-sided baking pan with parchment, letting the parchment hang over the long sides by about 2 inches (this will help you remove the bars from the pan later). Spray all the parchment, including the exposed ends, with non-stick cooking spray.
- Add the flour, graham cracker crumbs, baking powder and salt to a medium-sized bowl then whisk to combine. Set aside. Add the butter and sugar to the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with a paddle attachment. On medium-low speed, cream the butter and sugar together until light and fluffy, about 3 minutes. Add the eggs, one at a time, beating after each addition. Beat in the vanilla. Turn the mixer off and add in the flour mixture and stir by hand until just combined.
- Divide the dough in half. Using clean hands, place pieces of the dough all over the base of the prepared pan (this will make it easier to spread it into a crust that covers the base of the pan). Lightly spray your clean hands with the non-stick spray then gently press and mold the dough to cover the base of the pan.
- Place the chocolate bars on top of the dough in an even flat layer. Press slightly to adhere the chocolate to the dough. It will not cover the dough completely but will melt and spread as it bakes. Similar to the dough, dollop the marshmallow creme all over the chocolate bars. Spray your clean hands with the non-stick spray then use them to gently spread the marshmallow creme to completely cover the chocolate bars and dough. Sprinkle the peanut butter chips and the semi-sweet chocolate chips on top of the marshmallow creme. Spray your hands once again then take the remaining half of the dough and gently flatten into pancake-like pieces. Place them on top of the chips allowing some of the marshmallow creme and chips to peek through.
- Bake until golden brown, about 35 minutes. Let the bars cool completely before cutting into squares.

Steps:
- Line a 9-inch square baking pan with waxed paper, overlapping all 4 sides. Spray with cooking spray.
- Place a nonstick pan over low heat and add the butter. When melted, add two-thirds of the marshmallows and cook, stirring, until the marshmallows have melted and combined with the butter, about 3 minutes. Next, fold in the chocolate chips and stir until they are melted too. Add the salt and half of the broken graham crackers and stir so the cracker pieces are incorporated into the chocolate marshmallow mixture but not broken up too much.
- Tip the mixture into the prepared pan and press it into the pan with a wooden spoon. Sprinkle over the remaining graham crackers and marshmallows, pressing them down with your hands so they set into the base. Next, add the coated candies and sprinkles and press them down.
- Allow to set for 1 hour before removing from the pan and cutting into bars. Or you can chill for 10 minutes and slice if you're in a hurry!

Steps:
- Grease a 9-inch-square pan and line it with parchment paper so that the paper extends up all sides. Lightly spray the parchment with nonstick spray and set aside.
- For the crust: Lightly spray a large bowl with nonstick spray. Break the graham crackers into the bowl, aiming for pieces about 1/2 to 1 inch in size. Crush the pretzels into the bowl so that they break into halves or quarters. Toss together and set aside.
- Melt the butter in a medium saucepan over medium. Cook until it begins to bubble, then stir with a spatula until it becomes golden brown, 1 to 2 minutes. Immediately add the marshmallows and 1 tablespoon water; the mixture will bubble. Reduce the heat to low and continue stirring until the marshmallows are mostly melted, about 1 minute.
- Remove from the heat and stir in the white chocolate chips and salt, stirring until the chips melt. Pour this mixture over the graham cracker mixture and toss and stir to combine. Scrape into the prepared pan and press into an even layer, filling in gaps by borrowing some of the mix from another spot.
- For the trail mix toppings: Sprinkle the almonds, marshmallows, chocolate chips and coconut evenly over the mixture in the pan. Press firmly to make sure it sticks to the base layer.
- For the chocolate coating: Combine the semisweet chips, oil and salt in a microwave-safe bowl and microwave in 15-second intervals stirring after each, until melted, about 45 seconds. Pour over the trail mix layer and smooth with a spatula, filling any crevices. Tap the pan gently to help the chocolate settle.
- Sprinkle with coconut if using. Allow to set until the chocolate is firm, several hours at room temperature or about 1 hour in the refrigerator. Cut into 16 bars. Leftovers will keep, covered, at room temperature for up to one week.

Tips:
- For a gooier s'more bar, use a combination of milk chocolate chips and semisweet chocolate chips.
- If you don't have graham cracker crumbs, you can make your own by crushing graham crackers in a food processor or blender.
- To make sure the s'more bars don't stick to the pan, line the pan with parchment paper before pressing in the crust.
- If you don't have a kitchen torch, you can toast the marshmallows under the broiler, but watch them closely so they don't burn.
- For a fun twist, try using different flavors of marshmallows, such as chocolate or peanut butter.
Conclusion:
S'more bars are a delicious and easy-to-make treat that are perfect for any occasion. With just a few simple ingredients, you can create a gooey, chocolatey dessert that everyone will love. So next time you're looking for a sweet treat, give s'more bars a try!
