My sister-in-law Laura requested I make my Peanut Butter Skillet S’mores Nachos for her soon to be daughter-in-law, Stephanie’s bridal shower last weekend! Since the skillet s’mores are the kind of dessert that’s fun to gather round, dig in and get a little messy while eating – I thought maybe we needed something a little neater for the shower.

I decided to make Peanut Butter S’mores Cookie Bars! I made a few versions, made some tweaks and here’s the final delicious recipe! The chewy cookie dough base is loaded with graham cracker crumbs, chocolate chips and peanut butter chips/candies… then, after baking, you top the bars with mini marshmallows, more chocolate and peanut butter chips/candies and pop them under the broiler to toast the marshmallows! The toasting gives the Peanut Butter S’mores Cookie Bars that authentic campfire s’mores flavor! Yum!! Enjoy!

Prep Time: 20 minutes
Cook Time: 30 minutes
Total Time: 50 minutes
Servings: 24 bars

Ingredients

  • Non-stick baking spray or butter to grease pan
  • 1 3/4 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 3/4 cups graham cracker crumbs finely ground
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt I used coarse kosher salt, if using table salt, use 1/4 teaspoon
  • 2 sticks (1 cup) butter softened
  • 1 1/2 cups light brown sugar lightly packed
  • 2 large eggs
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
  • 1 cup + 2 tablespoons chocolate chips divided
  • 1/4 cup + 2 tablespoons peanut butter chips or Reese's pieces divided
  • 1 1/3 cups mini marshmallows

Instructions 

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Arrange oven rack to center position.
  • Spray or grease 9 x 13 x 2" pan with non-stick spray or butter. (I used a thinly aluminum metal pan. If using a glass or dark colored pan reduce oven temperature to 325.) Line pan width-wise with 2 layers of foil that over hang the sides of the pan, fold over excess. Spray or grease foil.
  • Whisk together flour, graham cracker crumbs, baking powder and salt in small bowl.
  • Using electric mixer, cream together butter and sugar for several minutes or until fluffy and lightened in color.
  • Add eggs one at a time, then add vanilla.
  • Mix in dry ingredients, then add 1 cup of the chocolate chips and 1/4 cup of the peanut butter chips.
  • Press dough into prepared pan. (I use buttered fingers or spatula to press dough into pan.)
  • Bake for 25-30 minutes or until golden browned on the edges and still a little soft in the center.
  • Remove pan from oven, set oven to broil (keeping oven rack in same center position.) Top baked bars with marshmallows and remaining 2 tablespoons each chocolate and peanut butter chips.
  • Return pan to oven and broil - WATCHING - until the marshmallows are toasted. It will happen quickly - don't take your eyes off. Remove pan from oven and allow to cool fully.
  • Once cool, use foil sling to remove to a cutting board. Cut into 24 squares. (Wipe knife clean in between cuts to prevent sticking.) Store in an airtight container for several days.
