Ingredients
Crust
- 1 ¾ cup graham cracker crumbs
- ½ cup gluten free all purpose baking flour spoon and leveled
- 3 tablespoons white sugar
- ½ cup butter melted
- ½ tsp salt
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
To top
- 2-3 extra large Hershey's bars or 6 regular ones (~9 ounces)
- 3 cups mini marshmallows
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit.
- Add your graham crackers to a food processor or blender and pulse until it looks somewhat like flour. A few chunks are ok.
- Measure out 1 3/4 cup and add to a bowl.
- Add all remaining crust ingredients to the bowl and mix to combined.
- Add to a 9x9 lined with parchment paper (make it long enough in one direction so it folds over two of the edges which will make for easier removal) and press down firmly with your hands until it is spread throughout the dish.
- Bake for 15 minutes.
- When the crust is done, top with the hershey's bars, breaking up as needed to ensure the whole crust is covered. You can use more than 2 bars if you prefer a thicker layer of chocolate. I used about 9 ounces which is a bit more than 2 XL bars.
- Add to the oven for 2-3 minutes to melt.
- Add the marshmallows on top in one even layer.
- Broil for 2-3 minutes.
- Keep a VERY close eye on the oven since broiling can quickly burn things if you're not careful. They will go from white to golden to totally burnt in a matter of 20 seconds, so even if it seems like they're browning slowly, don't take your eyes off of them!
- Remove from the oven and let cool for at least 30 minutes. Use a sharp knife to slice around the edges and carefully lift up from the parchment paper (hopefully that makes sense!). Slice into 16 even squares and enjoy!
- Since the chocolate can harden as they cool, I like to warm them in the microwave for about 5-10 seconds before eating so the chocolate is nice and melty!
Notes
To make this vegan, use vegan butter, vegan chocolate and vegan marshmallows!
