Smores Nutella Bars

Makes 24 bars

Ingredients:

• 16 sheets graham crackers, pulverized into crumbs
• 10 T (1 stick + 2 T) butter, melted
• 1/4 C sugar
• 1/4 T salt
• 1 C heavy cream
• 8 oz dark chocolate chips
• 8 oz semi sweet chocolate chips
• 1 C Nutella
• 16 regular sized marshmallows
• 1 C mini marshmallows

Directions:

Heat oven to 350.  Line a 9×13 pan with foil and coat with nonstick cooking spray.

Combine graham cracker crumbs, melted butter, sugar and salt.  Carefully press into prepared pan, use the bottom of a measuring cup to help.  Try to push the crumbs up on the sides about 1 inch.  Bake crust for 8 minutes.

While the crust is baking, heat the heavy cream on the stove on medium low heat.  Add dark and semi sweet chocolate chips, stir with spatula until melted.  Add Nutella and stir until blended.

Pour chocolate mixture smoothly on the baked crust.

Cut regular size marshmallows in half and set randomly on melted chocolate mixture.  Fill in spaces with mini marshmallows.

Turn on the oven broiler and carefully move pan from one side to the other, watching closely.  Marshmallows will puff up and turn golden brown.  This takes less than 2 minutes.  Do not walk away, answer your phone, get distracted etc while bars are under the broiler.

Refrigerate for at least 2 hours.  Slice and serve.
