S’Mores Cookie Bars
Let’s be honest, the best thing about campfires is the S’MORES! Is there really any other reason to have one other than to roast marshmallows, layer them with chocolate and graham crackers? I DON’T THINK SO!
So, I wanted to figure out a way to make smore’s without the campfire and to make them vegan and gluten-free since most marshmallows have gelatin in them. By using animal-friendly marshmallows and non-dairy chocolate we have created an #inclusivedessert in our smore’s cookie bars.
These treats are perfect for sharing with your friends on a warm summer night, or stuffing your face with nostalgic goodness while watching TV. These certainly take me back to a simpler time before adulting was a part of my life, and I hope they take you back to your summer getaway campfires as well.
