Prep time: 10 minutes

Bake time: 30 minutes

Total time: 40 minutes

Makes about 24 bars

• 1/2 cup butter, room temperature
• 1 cup granulated sugar
• 1 teaspoon vanilla
• 1 whole egg, plus 2 eggs (you will separate the yolks from the whites–keep both!!!)
• 1-1/2 cups flour
• 1 tsp baking powder
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 1 cup mini marshmallows
• 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
• 1 cup light brown sugar, packed

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit.
• Spray a 9×13 baking pan with your choice of nonstick spray
• In a large bowl, cream together butter, granulated sugar, 1 whole eggs, plus 2 egg yolks (remember, keep the egg whites!), and vanilla until smooth.
• Add in flour, baking powder, and salt and mix until just combined.
• Spread mixture into prepared pan.
• Top with chocolate chips and mini marshmallows.
• In a separate bowl, mix together the 2 egg whites using an electric mixer, about 2 minutes on high, until stiff peaks form.
• Fold in the brown sugar (that means gently turn your egg whites over onto your brown sugar) and stir until combined and there are no lumps.
• Spread on top of chocolate chips and marshmallows.
• Bake 30-35 minutes until top is golden brown.
• Allow to cool completely before cutting into squares to serve.
• Store airtight at room temperature for up to three days.

• If you prefer not to use white sugar, coconut sugar is a great alternative which has a caramel-like flavor and actually compliments this recipe nicely.

These kind of remind me of s’mores but in a bar version. Still ooey gooey, still a little messy, but contained in a slightly more manageable square. These are a fall favorite that I found last year and now I look forward to making them again when it isn’t so hot outside and I can handle the oven being on.

They’re perfect for crowds and get-together’s because they are best fresh and only keep for a few days, but you’ll likely not have to worry about them sticking around much longer after that anyway because they’re so yummy! 🙂

Until next time,
