Ingredients
Scale
Base
- 24 graham cracker squares
- 24 pack Reeses Ready To Bake Peanut Butter Cookies
Toppings
- 2 cups mini marshmallows
- 24 Hershey Bar pieces
- 1 cup Reeses Pieces
- 1/4 cup mini chocolate chips
Instructions
- Preheat and Prepare Baking Sheet: Set your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper to prevent sticking.
- Arrange Graham Crackers: Place the 24 graham cracker squares evenly on the parchment-lined baking sheet, ensuring each is a separate square, not in rectangular form.
- Add Cookie Dough: Put one unbaked Reeses Ready To Bake Peanut Butter Cookie on top of each graham cracker square and gently flatten the cookie dough slightly to ensure even baking.
- Bake First Phase: Bake the arranged cookies and graham crackers in the oven for 6 minutes until the cookie dough starts to firm but is not fully baked.
- Add Toppings: Remove the baking sheet from the oven and immediately top each cookie with mini marshmallows, a piece of Hershey Bar chocolate, Reeses Pieces, and a sprinkle of mini chocolate chips.
- Bake Second Phase: Return the pan to the oven and bake for an additional 6 to 7 minutes, allowing the marshmallows to melt and the chocolates to soften and blend.
- Serve: Remove from the oven and let cool slightly before pulling apart the bars and serving. These bars are best enjoyed warm for the perfect gooey and crunchy texture.

- Use parchment paper for easy cleanup and to prevent sticking.
