Chocolate Mallomar Marshmallow Bars

This is my first time being part of the Lady Behind the Curtain's Dessert Challenge.  This month's ingredients are Cocoa and Marshmallows.  Since Sam is still home from school I figured we would do this one together. This is basically a toll house cookie recipe made into bars with the addition of cocoa powder and marshmallow cream and chopped up mallomar cookies for extra yumminess.  It was a little bit tricky to put together but I used my hands with cooking gloves on and everything was fine.  Marshmallow creme spreads as easily as Nutella which is not easily.  

Ingredients:
2-1/4 cup all purpose flour
1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
1 tsp baking soda
1 tsp salt
1 sticks unsalted butter at room temperature
1/2 cup granulated sugar
1 cup brown sugar
2 eggs
1 tsp vanilla extract
1 cup semisweet chocolate chips
10 mallomar cookies chopped into little pieces
1 jar marshmallow creme

Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
In a medium bowl add flour, cocoa powder, baking soda and salt and set aside.
In a large bowl of a stand mixer, combine butter and both sugars.  Add eggs one at a time beating after each addition.  Add vanilla and combine.


Slowly add dry ingredients to wet ingredients.


Fold in chocolate chips and chopped cookie pieces.  Spread half the dough into a 9 x 13 pan lined with parchment paper.  I put half the dough in the pan and then used my hands to press down the mixture until it was even and spread out.  Next spread the marshmallow creme over the entire dough which I also did with my hands.  And then take the remaining dough and spread over the marshmallow creme.  This also worked well with my hands.


Bake for 28-32 minutes.  Take out of oven and cool before slicing into pieces.  Makes about 24 pieces.



Enjoy!!
