1 ½ cups (180 g) all purpose flour
1 package (9 full rectangles, 135 g) graham crackers (pulsed into crumbs)
1 teaspoon baking powder
½ teaspoon salt
12 tablespoons (170 g, 1 1/2 sticks) unsalted butter melted
1 ½ cups (320 g) packed light brown sugar
2 large eggs room temperature
2 teaspoons natural vanilla extract
30 mini Hershey bars (or you can use full size) (or 2-3 cups milk chocolate chips)
3-4 cups mini marshmallows (or large ones cut in half)

Position a rack in the center of your oven. Preheat the oven to 350°F (180℃). Lightly coat a 9 by 13 baking pan with cooking spray or line with parchment paper.
Whisk together the flour, graham cracker crumbs, baking powder and salt into a bowl. Set aside. 1 ½ cups (180 g) all purpose flour 1 package (9 full rectangles, 135 g) graham crackers 1 teaspoon baking powder ½ teaspoon salt
In a second mixing bowl, whisk together melted butter, brown sugar, eggs, and vanilla. 12 tablespoons (170 g, 1 1/2 sticks) unsalted butter 1 ½ cups (320 g) packed light brown sugar 2 large eggs 2 teaspoons natural vanilla extract
Add dry ingredients and mix until just combined, 5 to 10 seconds. Spread batter into prepared pan.
Bake for about 22-25 minutes, or until the top is set and golden brown. Bars may appear to be not done, but they will set up as they cool.
Remove the pan from the oven. Layer the top with the chocolate bars. Top with marshmallows. 30 mini Hershey bars (or you can use full size) 3-4 cups mini marshmallows
Turn the oven to broil and return the bars to the oven for 1 to 2 minutes or until the marshmallows are lightly toasted. Keep a close eye on them so they don't burn! Set the pan on a wire rack and cool completely before cutting into bars.

Storage: You can store these at room temperature for up to 3 days. Just make sure they are covered.
Swap Out The Mini Marshmallows - Use large marshmallows but cut them in half first.
Be sure to measure your flour correctly. Over-measuring can result in a cakey texture instead fo the perfect chewiness that we are going for. You can get the full tutorial on how to measure your flour here.
Make sure your ingredients are room temperature, like your eggs. To bring your eggs to room temperature quickly place them in a bowl of warm water for 10 minutes.
Do not overbake. They may appear not done at this time, but taking them out during that time, ensures you won’t overbake them!
Watch The Broiler! Once the marshmallows are on and they are under the broiler. Be careful. They can burn quickly!
Graham Cracker Crumbs:To make graham cracker crumbs, pulse crackers in a food processor until finely ground.
