Although the original s'mores are quite tasty, this S'mores Bar takes the dessert to a whole new level. A graham cracker crust topped with a chocolate chip, marshmallow cookie layer and then topped off once again with Hershey's bars.Summer: the best time of the year, sleeping in, late nights, swimming, vacation, sunscreen, being lazier than anyone on the Earth, being with friends more than family, and the occasional craving for a s'more.
Does that not pretty much sum up a summer? I do think so, except occasional may be defined as every day in this situation. But that's ok because what's better than a crunchy graham cracker, gooey marshmallow, and melted chocolate? Well, you may think nothing could be better that comes from the campfire, but these s'mores bars are the most delicious form of a s'more you will ever eat. It's a combination of marshmallow chocolate chip cookie dough over a graham cracker crust and topped with Hershey's.
