99% of what I cook is healthy. Seriously. That other 1%, however, is the stuff of dreams. For example, I figure if I'm going to inhale desert, I'm going to make it worth every single calorie. Forget the fat-free crap, BRING ON THE CALORIES AND CLOGGED ARTERIES.

Although, I'm pretty sure there are no calories in these. Ahem.

The original idea came from here, but then I twisted it around and sprinkled in a little extra magic and mayhem. Go big or go home, people.

Magic S'mores

You'll need:

1 pouch (17.5 oz) peanut butter cookie mix
1 1/2 cups graham cracker crumbs
1 cup butter, melted
1 bag (11.5 oz) milk chocolate chips
1 cup caramels
1 bag (10.6 oz) small marshmallows

Preheat oven to 375 degrees.

In a large bowl, combine cookie mix and graham crackers. Add melted butter and stir until it forms a dough. Press into an ungreased 13x9" pan.

Bake the cookie dough mixture for 15-16 minutes, or until puffy and almost done. Top with caramels and place back in the oven. Bake for an additional 2-3 minutes, or until caramels are softened and the cookie dough is lightly browned.

Immediately top cookie mix and caramels with chocolate chips. Wait 3-4 minutes and then spread melted chocolate evenly across the top.

Set oven to broil (high if you have a choice). Top the cookie mix, caramels, and chocolate with the marshmallows. Broil the whole awesome mess for about one minute, or until the marshmallows are lightly browned. Keep an eye on it because the marshmallows will go from perfect to burnt to a crisp almost instantly.

Allow to cool for a few mintues before cutting into small squares.

Serve warm. Make sure you have wet wipes or something handy because SHOCKER! Melted chocolate, caramel, and marshmallows get a bit messy and sticky and ZOMG! SO GOOD!

I think these are probably going to be our picnik/potluck dish of the summer. They're perfect for sharing.
