The Baked Cougar Bakes - Extra gooey S'mores Bars

I love marshmallows, I love chocolate and I love graham crackers. However, I do not love them all together as a S’more. When I get stoned out of my head, I not only crave something that is salty and sweet, I also crave something that has just enough crunch and a whole lotta goo. These S’more’s bars have all that is needed to satisfy this baked cougar.

Extra Gooey S’mores Bars

Pre-heat your oven to 350 degrees. Line a 8 x 8 pan (or anything close to what you think is 8 inches) with aluminum foil and spray with cooking spray.

Melt 1 stick (1/2 cup) of unsalted butter. Now don’t go making it all hot, melt it just enough so that it is pourable. Pour that melted butter into a Kitchen Aid.

Add 1 cup packed dark brown sugar to that butter and using the paddle, beat that butter and sugar the way it want’s to be beat, till it’s all light and fluffy.

Add 1 (room temperature) egg and 1 Tablespoon vanilla extract to the butter and sugar and again, beat it. Beat it real good. Don’t be shy, it wants you to beat it. It will perform so much better for you when you beat it the way it want’s to be beat.

Add 3/4 cup flour and mix just until well combined. It’s important to know when to beat something and when not to beat something, now that you’ve added the flour, you’re not going to beat it, just blend it till well combined.

Add 2 cups of crushed Golden Graham Cereal, 1 cup of mini marshmallows, 1 cup of mini chocolate chips and stir until all these ingredients are all blended together in a seamless, endless mixture of pleasure.

Scoop this gooey batter into prepared pan and gently smooth the top. Caress it. Let it know you care for it after all that beating.

Bake for 18-20 minutes, take out of the oven and sprinkle on 1/2 cup of mini marshmallows place back into the oven for about 5 more minutes or until those top marshmallows have developed a golden roasted color.

Allow to cool in pan for at least 45 minutes. I know it’s tough to wait but the rewards will be so fantastic.

Once cool, cut into bars or have at it with a fork, or your fingers… you do you. Life is a celebration, enjoy yourself bitches.

See you next Tuesday with more treats that I like to put in my mouth.
