No Fire Needed.

I cannot wait for Summer.  It has been so nice enjoying our yard and being out late with the kiddos playing just as the evening is cooling off. The other day I was thinking about camping and you can't think of camping without S'mores.  One of  Brayden's favorite summertime treats, mine as well. Roasting the perfect marshmallow over hot coals. We didn't have a campfire but wanted a ooey gooey treat!  I made some smore bars...a little bit of heaven even if you don't have a fire going.  They are the next best thing.

S'mores = Summer

Cannot wait for a wonderful summer FULL of activities and many more S'mores!

If  you are craving some summer at all, here is the recipe.

Ingredients

Crust:

• 6 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
• 1 1/2 cups crushed graham cracker crumbs
• Pinch fine salt

Brownie:

• 1 Package brownie mix

Topping:

• 2 cups large marshmallows
• As many Hershey Bars as you would like!

Directions

For the crust: Crush the graham crackers into a fine crumb. Press the crumb mixture evenly over the bottom of the pan.Pour melted butter over, press again into pan.  Bake until golden brown, about 20 minutes.

Meanwhile, make the brownie mix. 

Pour batter into the prepared pan over graham crust. Bake until the top is crispy and a toothpick inserted into the middle comes out mostly clean, with a few crumbs, about 40 to 45 minutes.

Remove from the oven and carefully position a rack about 6 inches from the broiler and preheat on low. Layer marshmallows across the top and toast under the broiler until golden, (keep an eye on it, it can go quick), about 2 minutes. Cool on a rack, while still warm break up Hershey bars and arrange on top. Cut into 12 (2-inch) squares.

Enjoy the gooey love!
