Smokey S'mores Popcorn Bars

Google S'mores recipes and you'll come up with an avalanche of cookies, cupcakes, cheesecakes, brownies, tarts....well you get the picture.  If it is in food form there is a recipe for it.

A lot of them forget one key ingredient to a great S'mores.  The campfire.  Sure, some of them have you either toasting the marshmallow part with a torch or broiling them in the oven, but I wondered if there was a way to get that without the flame.




Ingredients:

16 Ounces of marshmallows (I used homemade following Alton Brown's recipe. It's easy and it makes a huge difference!)

1 cup unsalted butter

1 cup brown sugar

1 teaspoon ground cinnamon

1 cup crushed graham crackers

6 tablespoons unpopped popcorn

2 tablespoons Wildtree Hickory Smoked Grilling Grapeseed Oil

1 cup chocolate chips (dark chocolate, mild chocolate, semi-sweet - pick your poison)

1 cup mini marshmallows

First you are going to make your popcorn.  I did it old school on the stove in a large dutch oven.  Heat oil on meadium high heat and add popcorn. Cover and shake until popping stops.  That's it, and you get a popcorn with a hint of smoke.  Campfire problem solved!

Place popcorn in a large, and I mean like the largest bowl you have.  You will need it for the mixing.  Melt butter in large sauce pan on medium high heat, and add brown sugar, stirring frequently until all sugar has melted into the butter.  Add the marshmallows, stirring constantly until everything is liquid.  Add cinnamon and stir to combined.  Turn off heat add pour mixture over popcorn, stirring to incorporate.  Gently stir mixture, adding graham cracker crumbs a little at a time so that they are evenly distributed.

Poor into a large, parchment covered cookie sheet.  Spread until it is evenly distributed, and top with mini marshmallows and chocolate chips.

Let cool completely and gently cut into bars.  This is so delicious and I must warn you, highly addicting.  I would say you can save it in an air tight container for a few days, but trust me, it won't last that long!
