Graham Cracker S'mores Candy {Week 6 of the 12 Weeks of Christmas Treats!}

We're halfway through the 12 Weeks of Christmas Treats challenge. That means Christmas isn't too far away! 



 














 I'm kinda on a s'mores kick lately. I made some S'mores Fudge.

Then I used my leftover graham crackers to make some Graham Cracker Candy.

Now I'm back with something similar. 






















But not.

It's Graham Cracker S'MORES Candy this time 'round.



















I used more than 12 graham crackers so didn't put an exact amount in the recipe. It did take 12 whole graham crackers, plus I added in smaller pieces to completely cover the bottom of the pan. I left out the chocolate chips because, well, when I was in the middle of making this I noticed I didn't have them. When do I not have chocolate chips in the house?!? Insane, I know. But include them if you like. I don't think it necessarily needs them.

It still tasted like s'mores heaven. 

 
















Graham Cracker S'mores Candy
slightly adapted from Bakergirl
  • Graham crackers (12+)
  • 3/4 cup unsalted butter
  • 3/4 cup dark brown sugar
  • 3 cups mini marshmallows
  • 4 Hershey bars, broken into pieces
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil, leaving a 1-inch overhang over the ends, and spray foil with cooking spray. Line graham crackers up on the foil evenly and cover the bottom of the pan.

In a medium saucepan, melt butter and brown sugar over medium heat, stirring constantly until smooth and mixture comes just 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 and chocolate bar pieces over the graham crackers. Return pan to oven for another 3-5 minutes, or until marshmallows begin to soften and puff up. 

Cool completely. Lift from pan using foil edges. Cut into bars to serve.
