Ingredients
  

2 cups graham cracker crumbs

1 cup mini marshmallows

1 cup milk chocolate chips

1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa powder

1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted

1/3 cup powdered sugar

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

1/2 cup additional mini marshmallows for topping

1/2 cup chocolate chips for drizzling

Instructions
 

Prepare the Pan: Start by lining an 8x8-inch baking dish with parchment paper. Leave a bit of an overhang on the sides to make it easy to lift the bars out once they are set.

    Make the Base: In a large mixing bowl, combine the graham cracker crumbs, cocoa powder, melted butter, and powdered sugar. Mix thoroughly with a spatula or wooden spoon until the mixture is well combined and takes on the texture of wet sand.

      Add Marshmallows and Chocolate: Gently fold in the mini marshmallows and milk chocolate chips, ensuring they are evenly distributed throughout the graham cracker mixture.

        Press into the Pan: Transfer the mixture to your prepared baking dish. Use a spatula or the palms of your hands to press it down firmly into an even layer across the bottom of the dish.

          Chill: Place the dish in the refrigerator for about 30 minutes, allowing the mixture to firm up for better slicing later.

            Prepare the Topping: After chilling, remove the dish from the refrigerator. Evenly sprinkle the additional mini marshmallows over the top of the bar base, creating a fluffy layer.

              Drizzle with Chocolate: In a microwave-safe bowl, melt the remaining chocolate chips in 30-second intervals, stirring well in between, until completely smooth. Drizzle the melted chocolate artfully over the marshmallow layer for a lovely finish.

                Final Chill: Return the dish to the refrigerator for another 15-20 minutes to allow the chocolate layer to set and the marshmallows to slightly soften.

                  Slice and Serve: Once set, lift the bars out of the baking dish using the parchment overhang. Cut into squares or rectangles using a sharp knife for neat edges, and serve them chilled or at room temperature.

                    Enjoy: Indulge in the delightful combination of chocolate, marshmallow, and a crispy base with every bite of your delectable No-Bake S’mores Bars!
