Ingredients

  • 2 cups graham cracker crumbs (200 g)
  • 8 tbsp unsalted butter, melted (113 g)
  • 2 tbsp light brown sugar (optional, for extra hold)
  • 0.25 tsp fine salt
  • 12 oz semisweet chocolate chips or chopped bars (340 g)
  • 0.5 cup heavy cream (120 ml) or 2 tbsp coconut oil
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract (optional)
  • 3 cups mini marshmallows (150 g) or 1 jar marshmallow creme (7 oz/200 g)
  • crushed graham crackers, chocolate drizzle, flaky sea salt (optional, for finish)

Equipment

  • 8×8-inch pan
  • saucepan or microwave-safe bowl
  • offset spatula
  • kitchen torch or broiler (optional)

Method

  • Line an 8×8-inch pan with parchment, leaving overhang for lifting later.
  • Mix graham crumbs, melted butter, sugar, and salt. Press firmly into pan. Chill 10 minutes.
  • Heat cream to steaming and pour over chocolate. Stand 2 minutes, then stir smooth for ganache. (For firmer layer, melt chocolate with coconut oil.) Stir in vanilla if using.
  • Spread chocolate over crust. Immediately top with marshmallows, pressing lightly to adhere.
  • Chill until firm, 45–60 minutes.
  • Optional: Broil 20–45 seconds to toast marshmallows or use a kitchen torch.
  • Lift bars from pan using parchment overhang. Slice into 16 bars with a warm knife.
