Ingredients

Servings:12
  • 1/2 cup Unsalted butter, melted
  • 1 1/2 cups Graham cracker crumbs
  • 2 teaspoons Ground cinnamon
  • 1/4 cup Granulated sugar
  • 3 cups Miniature marshmallows
  • 1 tablespoon Vanilla bean paste
  • 1 tablespoon Fresh orange zest
  • 1/2 cup Sweetened condensed milk
  • 1/2 cup White chocolate chips(optional)
  • 1/4 teaspoon Salt

Instructions

  1. 1

    Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line an 8x8 inch baking pan with parchment paper.

  2. 2

    In a medium bowl, combine the graham cracker crumbs, melted butter, sugar, and 1 teaspoon of cinnamon until the mixture resembles wet sand.

  3. 3

    Press the crumb mixture firmly into the bottom of the prepared pan to create an even crust layer.

  4. 4

    Bake the crust for 8 minutes, then remove from the oven and set aside.

  5. 5

    In a small bowl, whisk together the sweetened condensed milk, vanilla bean paste, and orange zest.

  6. 6

    Spread the miniature marshmallows evenly over the pre-baked crust and sprinkle with the remaining cinnamon.

  7. 7

    Drizzle the vanilla-zest milk mixture over the marshmallows and top with white chocolate chips if using.

  8. 8

    Bake for an additional 12-15 minutes until the marshmallows are puffed and golden brown.

  9. 9

    Allow the bars to cool completely in the pan before slicing to ensure the mallow layer sets properly.
