They have the best chicken salad and sweet potato fries and DESSERTS.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In all honesty, I&#8217;ve only ever tried a few of the many dessert bars they have \u2014 I tend to find something I like and obsessively eat only that one thing until I&#8217;ve completely exhausted my taste for it. And for the past year or so, it&#8217;s been these <a href=\"https:\/\/www.somethingswanky.com\/bakery-style-peanut-butter-swirl-chocolate-chip-cookies\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Peanut Butter Swirl Cookies<\/a> that they make in-house.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In fact, when I asked my husband to go grab a dessert after our meal (translation: <em>go get me a peanut butter cookie!<\/em>), I was actually irritated when he returned with a gigantic S&#8217;mores bar the size of my face. I know \u2014 who am I?? Anyway, I refused to even try a piece until he and Emma had demolished almost the entire thing. I grabbed the last little piece fully expecting to be underwhelmed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Instead&#8230; the clouds parted and angels sang and I sent my husband back for another. That I ate all on my own and never looked back.

I was thrilled to discover that this mores bars recipe turned out PERFECTLY on the very first try.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How I Built These S&#8217;mores Cookie Bars<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>All I had to do was make a few moderate alterations to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.somethingswanky.com\/king-arthur-flour-chocolate-chip-cookies\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">my favorite chocolate chip cookie recipe<\/a>. In a large bowl, I creamed unsalted butter with dark brown sugar and white sugar, then beat in a large egg and vanilla extract. In a separate medium bowl, I used a food processor to pulse graham cracker squares into fine crumbs, then whisked that cup of the graham cracker crumbs right into my flour mixture before I combine flour and dry ingredients with the wet. This gives the graham cracker cookie dough an <em>on point<\/em> graham cracker taste in addition to a little crispy crunchy texture in every bite \u2014 way more interesting than your average oatmeal cookie bars!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To build the bars, I sprayed my square pan with cooking spray and lined it with parchment paper for easy lifting later. I pressed half of the dough into an even layer across the bottom of the pan to form the cookie base, then spread marshmallow fluff (regular marshmallows or mini marshmallows work in a pinch) right over that bottom layer. Next came a generous pile of chocolate bar pieces \u2014 I like to chop up real hershey bars for that melty chocolate, hershey&#8217;s chocolate flavor you just can&#8217;t fake. Then I pressed the remaining cookie dough into small pieces and scattered them over the top in a single layer, not worrying too much about full coverage since it spreads as it bakes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Important note: don&#8217;t skip chilling your dough if your kitchen runs warm, or you&#8217;ll have a hard time getting clean layers once you spoon marshmallow creme over that bottom cookie layer. Heat oven to 350\u00b0F, and bake until the top is golden brown and the gooey marshmallows are just barely peeking through.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"620\" height=\"936\" data-pin-url=\"https:\/\/www.somethingswanky.com\/smores-cookie-bars\/?tp_image_id=12634\" data-pin-title=\"S\u2019mores Cookie Bars Recipe\" data-pin-description=\"Soft, chewy, and slightly crunchy graham cracker cookie bars with a marshmallow swirl and semi-sweet chocolate chips.\" src=\"https:\/\/www.somethingswanky.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/DSC_4807-620x936.jpg\" alt=\"Soft, chewy, and slightly crunchy graham cracker cookie bars with a marshmallow swirl and semi-sweet chocolate chips.\" class=\"wp-image-12634\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.somethingswanky.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/DSC_4807-620x936.jpg 620w, https:\/\/www.somethingswanky.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/DSC_4807-600x906.jpg 600w, https:\/\/www.somethingswanky.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/DSC_4807-500x755.jpg 500w, https:\/\/www.somethingswanky.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/DSC_4807.jpg 625w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 620px) 100vw, 620px\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n<p>These seriously could not have turned out any better.

But you can totally keep these at room temperature for a soft, gooey, perfect cookie. Once they&#8217;ve cooled completely, store leftovers in an airtight container so that graham cracker crust stays nice and intact.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Tips For The Best Mores Cookies<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>A few quick notes before you grab your mixing bowl and baking dish: use simple ingredients you probably already have on hand \u2014 purpose flour, melted butter, milk chocolate chips or semi-sweet, and a good combination of marshmallows and graham crackers for that true s&#8217;mores flavor. If you don&#8217;t have a rolling pin handy for crushing your own graham cracker crumbs, store-bought crumbs work beautifully too. Keep an eye on bake time, since every baking pan and pan size bakes just a little differently, and pull them when the edges look set but the center still looks slightly underdone \u2014 they&#8217;ll firm up as they cool. Trust me, this scrumptious s&#8217;mores bar recipe is forgiving, so don&#8217;t stress over perfection!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Happy Friday, friends!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:100px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading has-text-align-center\" id=\"h-s-mores-cookie-bar-faqs\">S&#8217;mores Cookie Bar FAQs<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:60px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n<div class=\"schema-faq wp-block-yoast-faq-block\"><div class=\"schema-faq-section\" id=\"faq-question-1646537160724\"><strong class=\"schema-faq-question\">Can I make these bars gluten free?<\/strong> <p class=\"schema-faq-answer\">Yes, you can make these bars gluten free by using a gluten free graham cracker crumb mixture.<\/p> <\/div> <div class=\"schema-faq-section\" id=\"faq-question-1646537175133\"><strong class=\"schema-faq-question\">Can I make these bars dairy free?<\/strong> <p class=\"schema-faq-answer\">Yes, you can make these bars dairy free by using a dairy free butter substitute.<\/p> <\/div> <div class=\"schema-faq-section\" id=\"faq-question-1646537186082\"><strong class=\"schema-faq-question\">How do I store these bars?<\/strong> <p class=\"schema-faq-answer\">You should stores these bars in an airtight container at room temperature for up to two days.
