Preparation

Step 1

1 Preheat oven to 350°F Grease an 8-inch square baking pan.

2 In a large bowl, cream together butter and sugar until light.

3 Beat in egg and vanilla. In a small bowl, whisk together flour, graham cracker crumbs, baking powder and salt.

4 Add to butter mixture and mix at a low speed until combined.

5 Divide dough in half and press half of dough into an even layer on the bottom of the prepared pan.

6 Place chocolate bars over dough. 2 king-sized Hershey’s bars should fit perfectly side by side, but break the chocolate (if necessary) to get it to fit in a single layer no more than 1/4 inch thick.

7 Spread chocolate with marshmallow crème or fluff.

8 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).

9 Bake for 30 to 35 minutes, until lightly browned.

10 Cool completely before cutting into bars.
