Recipe Courtesy of Paula DeenServings: 12 squares
Prep Time: 10 min
Cook Time: 15 min
Difficulty: Easy
1 ½ cups teddy bear shaped graham cracker cookies
1 ½ cups miniature marshmallows
1 ½ cups semi sweet chocolate chips
½ cup brown sugar
1 (quart) mason jar
Layer all ingredients in the mason jar and attach an instruction label that reads:
“Preheat oven to 350º F. Prepare a 9” square baking dish with non-stick cooking spray. Pour contents of the jar along with ½ cup melted butter into the prepared baking dish and press firmly. Bake for 15 minutes. Remove from oven and cool completely. Cut into bars.”
Hey Paula! I love the S'Mores Mason jars - I gave them as gifts this Christmas! I even gave myself one and just baked them but mine did not set as pretty as yours? The butter was kinda just melted on top so they were soupy and they did not cut into nice pretty squares like yours! HELP! What do you think I did wrong? Hope your Christmas was great!!!!

I chilled the baked s'mores in the fridge for about an hour before cutting them (after letting the pan cool on a rack for 30 minutes or so). They were much easier to cut into square shapes. They are delicious! This is a great recipe and a terrific gift idea. I also used regular graham crackers which worked well. I crushed the crackers a bit before taking them out of their wrapping.

For those of you that had problems with the recipe, here is how I solved the problem of the ingredients not coming together to form bars. Pour the contents into a bowl and mash up the Teddy Graham cookies a little. Pour the butter on and toss the ingredients. Put into the baking dish and bake. When you take the dish out, get a wooden spoon and carefully mix up the melted ingredients a little more until you see the it mixed well. Press down with a spatula and let cool completely. Cut into little squares because it's very rich. Yummy!

these recipes look great. Where would I find a recipe that was served at a buffet In Tennessee. My daughter ate at one of your restaurants and had Elvis gooey bars made with peanut butter, she knows there was peanut butter and chocolate. But she could not remember exactly what they were called But she raved and bragged on them to me, her mom.She also new that Elvis was in the name. Is there anywhere I could find a recipe for them? I love your shows as do I your sons show.

I tried these and they were a mess. I wanted to make them for gifts. Do you mix them in a bowl first?

I definitely give these a 5 for taste- they're delicious! However, I'm giving them a lower mark due to presentation. The "bars" were a sticky glob. I followed the directions- did I do something wrong? Does anyone have any other ideas for presentation?

Paula I am trying to figure out if this would be something to send the troops in Iraq? They can only microwave. Do you have any recipes we could send the troops that would make them feel closer to home? Something sweet and delicious. Thanks.

I watched your cooking show on TV religiously and 1 of the recipes I tried, was your mac and cheese in the crock pot. Absolutely delicious and has been a big hit at many family get togethers and pot luck suppers. Thanks so much for your humour and making cooking and baking so much fun...thanks too for sharing so many wonderful ideas. Continued best wishes for all you do.
