A little while ago Justin came home from his EMT class and told me that some of the other peoples wives make treats to share at class. I’m not too sure but I think he was asking me to make treats for him to take to his class. Of course I did. This is my go to treat when I need something to take somewhere. They travel easy. They are cheap. They only take a few minutes to make. And they always turn out good.
I got some chocolate chips out and all of a sudden, I had help. Chocolate chips are magical. Line a baking sheet with tin foil and spray it with cooking spray. Then have your little man line the baking sheet with graham crackers.
Sprinkle marshmallows and chocolate chips on top. This time I experimented with one corner. I used white chocolate chips and dried cranberries. You should try it. It was a winner.
Combine butter and brown sugar together over medium heat until it is bubbly. Keep stirring it so the sugar dissolves good and it doesn’t burn.
After it is bubbly remove from the heat and add vanilla and salt.
Pour the caramel over the “stuff” in the baking sheet.
Bake it for 12 minutes. Let it cool and break or cut it into bars.

Fast and easy, that is my theme in life. Loved the smores bars because they accomplish both in the very same recipe. Brought them to work with me today, pretty sure they will be a hit around here. Thanks for sharing.
Ours our never as good as yours–but they are so good, we keep trying!
