s’mores bars

These bars were nothing short of amazing. So amazing I had this entire post written out 5 minutes ago before WordPress erased it all, and here I am typing everything back out. It would be a shame to keep this recipe to myself..

Clearly too amazing to wait for them to cool before cutting –>

I have an entire board on Pinterest dedicated to the summer delight, with so many recipes you could plan days worth of menus with nothing but s’mores..

S’mores oatmeal, french toast and pancakes for breakfast. Even monkey bread for weekend mornings! (All I know is I’m making this s’mores buckwheat bake as soon as humanly possible.)

S’mores sandwich(cooki)es and wraps for lunchtime

Quick snacks for anytime of day, granola bars and s’mores bites.

Redefine takeout for dinner with egg rolls to start followed by s’mores pizza, washed down with a vegan s’mores milkshake

And ohhh dessert.. s’mores cheesecake and pies, cupcakes and assorted s’mores truffles, petit fours, ice cream and so many more!

Plus s’mores shots in chocolate glasses and s’moretini shooters to relax with afterwards, and s’mores popcorn balls to set out with a movie.

But seriously, let’s get back to these bars..

Cook time: 30 minutes

Yield: 16 bars

Calories per serving: 200

Ingredients

• 1/4 cup butter or Earth Balance
• 1/4 cup coconut oil
• 1/4 cup jaggery (coconut sugar)
• 1/4 cup evaporated cane sugar
• 1 flax egg
• 2-3 t vanilla extract
• 1/2 cup spelt flour
• 1/2 cup buckwheat flour (ground from raw groats)
• 1 cup graham cracker crumbs
• 1 t baking powder
• 1/4 t salt
• 2 chocolate bars
• 1 1/2 cups (7 oz.) marshmallow fluff

Cooking Directions

1. Preheat oven to 350°F. Line an 8-inch square baking pan with parchment. Cream together butter and sugar until light. Beat in flax egg and vanilla. In a small bowl, whisk together flours, graham cracker crumbs, baking powder and salt. Add to butter mixture and mix at a low speed until combined. Divide dough in half and press half of dough into an even layer on the bottom of the prepared pan. Place chocolate bars over dough. Spread with marshmallow creme or fluff. Place remaining dough in a single layer on top of the fluff (most easily achieved by flattening the dough into small shingles and laying them together). Bake for 30 to 35 minutes, until lightly browned. Cool completely before cutting into bar
