Ingredients

Scale

1 cup ( 2 sticks) unsalted butter, at room temperature

1 cup brown sugar, packed

1/2 cup granulated sugar

2 large eggs, at room temperature

2 tsp. vanilla

11/2 tsp. baking soda

1 tsp. salt (kosher or table)

21/4 cup all-purpose flour

13/4 cup graham cracker crumbs, finely crushed

2 cups chocolate chips (milk or semi-sweet) + 1/4 to 1/3 cup additional chips for topping*

114 oz. can sweetened condensed milk

5 cups miniature marshmallows

Instructions

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.  Generously spray a 9 X 13-inch baking pan with nonstick spray. Set aside.

Using a hand-held or standing mixer, cream together the unsalted butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar until fluffy.  Beat in the eggs one at time.  Blend in vanilla.  Add baking soda, salt, and all-purpose flour to egg mixture until evenly combined.  Stir in graham cracker crumbs and mix well.   Pat 2/3 of the dough evenly into the bottom of the greased 9 x 13-inch pan.  Reserve the remaining dough for topping. 

In a microwave safe bowl, combine chocolate chips and sweetened condensed milk.  Microwave for 1 minute on high.  Stir until smooth.  (If needed, microwave mixture in 30-second increments and stir afterwards until melted.) Pour the melted chocolate mixture and spread to the edges of the pan over the graham dough layer.  

Top the chocolate layer with the miniature marshmallows.  Press down slightly.  Sprinkle 1/4 to 1/3 cup additional chocolate chips over the marshmallows.  Drop the remaining graham cookie dough by spoonfuls evenly over the marshmallow layer.  Bake for 25 minutes until golden brown.  Let cool on a wire rack before cutting and serving. 

Notes
