Graham Cracker S'mores Candy

Pin It
My daughter desperately wanted to be a Girl Scout this year and I was happy to have her join a troop.  To make a long story short...I ended up committing to be a troop leader.  Help!  I'm definitely not the sort of person that is comfortable in a leadership role.  I'm doing it though, for the little girls, because I want THEM to be comfortable in leadership roles.  The more I learn about Girl Scouts, the more I'm excited about being a part of it.  It's all about empowering girls - teaching them responsibility, resourcefulness and self reliance.  I love it!

So!  I made these sweet candy treats to celebrate our first parent meeting yesterday.

Graham Cracker S'mores Candy!


 I am usually able to just eat a (couple!) small bites of whatever I make and leave the rest alone...usually.  That was not the case with these though!  Oh my goodness!  I literally made myself ill because I over-sampled. :)  It was so worth it though.  I think it's the caramel layer that sends these treats right over the top.

Make some!


Graham Cracker S'mores Candy

by Brandy's Baking
Prep Time: 15 minutes
Cook Time: 10-15 minutes
Ingredients
  • 12 sheets of graham crackers
  • 3/4 cup butter
  • 3/4 cup brown sugar
  • 3 cups mini marshmallows
  • 4 Hershey bars, broken into pieces
  • 1 cup bittersweet or semi-sweet chocolate chips
Instructions
Preheat oven to 350°F. Line a 15x10x1-inch baking pan with aluminum foil, leaving a 1-inch overhang over the ends, and spray foil with cooking spray. Place graham crackers on the foil so that the sides are touching.

In a medium saucepan, melt butter and brown sugar over medium heat, stirring constantly, until smooth and mixture comes to a boil (about 4-6 minutes). Remove from heat and pour evenly over crackers. Bake 5 to 6 minutes, or until bubbly.

Remove pan from oven and immediately sprinkle mini marshmallows, chocolate bar pieces, and chocolate chips over the crackers.

Return pan to oven for another 2-3 minutes, or until marshmallows begin to soften and puff up.
Cool completely. (Refrigerate for a couple hours, if necessary, to help the chocolate and caramel firm up--it makes it much easier to cut.) Lift candy from pan using foil edges and cut into bars.

What a great idea! I've made something similar, but nothing quite like this! Can't wait to try it : )
