Why You'll Love This Recipe

• S'More Inspired: If you love s'mores then you will love these Pumpkin Spice S’More Bars! This fall inspired twist on the classic combines pumpkin spice, marshmallow crème, graham crackers, and dark chocolate.
• Eggless: These easy Pumpkin Spice S’More Bars start with a brown sugar cookie dough base (that is naturally eggless!). I add a little pumpkin spice into the dough, top them with marshmallow, graham crackers, and dark chocolate chips.
• Fall Vibes: Gooey, chocolatey, and full of pumpkin spice. Enjoy them with a big glass of milk or if the weather is getting cooler where you are, then they make a delicious snack with a Chai Tea Hot Chocolate or Boozy Pumpkin Spice Hot Chocolate.

Ingredients

• Brown Sugar: I use my Homemade Dark Brown Sugar, store bought also works. Using dark brown sugar gives a more rich depth of flavor to these s'more bars.
• Vanilla Extract: Use a high quality vanilla extract, not imitation.
• Pumpkin Spice: I use my Homemade Pumpkin Pie Spice Mix, but store bought also works.
• Heavy Whipping Cream: This is used as an egg replacer. I love using this for s'more bars because you can make them super gooey without the worry of under baking a dough with eggs!
• All Purpose Flour: My favorite is Cairnspring Mills.
• Baking Soda: Use baking soda, not salt. Be sure to check out my post the Difference Between Baking Soda and Baking Powder for more info on leavening agents.
• Marshmallow Creme: I use Toonie Moonie Marshmallow Crème, which is the only organic marshmallow fluff out there.

Baker's Tips

• Always weigh ingredients for the best results.
• Make sure you are using soft butter. I like to soften butter naturally on the countertop. But, if you must microwave it, be sure to only do 10 second intervals per ½ cup. As the weather gets cooler, I like to leave butter out overnight too!
• Vegan: Replace the butter with vegan butter. I recommend Miyoko's, this is what I used for testing.
• I like to use gloves when forming the cookie dough into the pan. Maybe it’s my commercial bakery past, but kitchen gloves are so helpful for things like this! The dough should not be too sticky that you can’t handle it, but if you don’t want to use your hands, you can also grease a spatula and use that to press it down.
• I use dark chocolate chips, but feel free to use milk chocolate if you want more of a traditional s’more flavor. You can also use semi sweet or even white chocolate. They would all be delicious!
• If you want these a bit crispier as opposed to soft and gooey, then bake them for about 5 minutes longer.
• Be sure to store these in an airtight container so they stay fresh. They are best when eaten within the first couple days of being baked but will be good for up to 5 days.

How to Make Pumpkin Spice S'More Bars

1. Preheat the oven to 325°F. Line an 8×8-inch baking pan with parchment paper. In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, add the butter, dark brown sugar, and vanilla extract.

2. Mix on low until combined and there are no chunks of butter.

3. Add the pumpkin puree.

4. Next add the flour, pumpkin spice, baking soda, and sea salt.

5. Mix together until a stiff cookie dough forms.

6. Place three-quarters of the dough (just eyeball it) into the baking pan and press it with your hands to form an even layer.

7. Top the cookie dough with the marshmallow crème and spread evenly.

8. Break the graham crackers into pieces and sprinkle the chocolate chips and graham crackers on top of the marshmallow.

9. Add the remaining cookie dough on top by breaking it into little chunks and adding evenly on top of the bars, allowing parts of marshmallow crème, chocolate chips, and graham crackers to show through.

10. Bake for 30 to 35 minutes or until the cookie portion looks lightly browned and it’s only a little jiggly. Allow to cool completely in the pan. Cut the bars into 9 bars. Store in an airtight container for up to 5 days.
