Ingredients
1 1/4 cup (156 g) all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup (113 g or 1 stick) unsalted butter, room temperature
1/2 cup (100 g) brown sugar
1/4 cup (50 g) white sugar
1 egg
1 teaspoon vanilla
6 graham cracker sheets (93 g), crushed into crumbs
2 (4.4 oz) milk chocolate XL Hershey Bars
1 jar (7 oz) marshmallow creme
Directions
- Preheat the oven to 350° F. Line an 8-inch by 8-inch baking pan with parchment paper and set aside.
- GRAHAM CRACKER DOUGH BASE
- In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, and salt. Set aside.
- In a large bowl using a hand mixer (or stand mixer), beat the butter, brown sugar and granulated sugar together until light and fluffy, about 1 minute. Mix in the egg and vanilla until combined.
- With the mixer on low, slowly add in the flour mixture and mix just until incorporated, about 20 seconds. Add in the graham cracker crumbs and stir just until combined, about 10 seconds (either with the mixer or by hand).
- Press half of the dough into the bottom of the pan. Lift out the parchment with the dough on it and set it aside—this will be your top cookie layer.¹
- ASSEMBLY
- Line the baking pan with parchment paper again and press the remaining dough into the bottom of the pan. Layer with the chocolate bars, marshmallow creme, and top cookie layer.²
- Bake at 350° F for 30 minutes or until golden brown on top. Let cool completely for best serving results.
