Cookie Carnival: S'mores Sandwich Bar Cookies

One of June's Cookie Carnival Recipes was the S'mores Sandwich Bar Cookies from Hershey's. Being campers, I had to make this for Jimmy and myself. Good choice!

Ingredients:

1/2 cup (1 stick) butter or margarine, softened

2/3 cup sugar

1 egg

1 tsp vanilla extract

1 1/3 cups all-purpose flour

3/4 cup graham cracker crumbs

1 tsp baking powder

1/4 tsp salt

1 1/3 cups (8 oz pkg) Hershey's Mini Milk Chocolate Bars OR 5 Hershey' Milk Chocolate Bars (1.55 oz each)

3 cups mini marshmallows

Directions:

1. Heat oven to 350 degrees. Grease 8-inch square baking pan.

2. Beat butter and sugar until well blended in large bowl. Add egg and vanilla, beat well. Stir together flour, graham cracker crumbs, baking powder and salt. Add to butter mixture, beating until blended. Press half of dough in prepared pan. Bake 15 minutes.

3. Sprinkle mini chocolate bars over baked layer or arrange unwrapped chocolate bars over baked layer breaking as needed to fit. Sprinkle with marshmallows, scatter bits of remaining dough over marshmallows forming top layer.

4. Bake 10-15 minutes or just until lightly browned. Cool completely in pan or wire rack. Cut into bars.
