Oreo Smore Jars

This one is interesting in a yummy way. Very intense flavors. It would be best for a picnic dessert. Plus, it's already in it's own little container! On a side note, one thing I will for sure do differently when I make these jars of yum again is use a piping bag for the brownie batter. It got all over the inside walls of the jar. Not a very attractive look, but if you're laissez faire, I say go with it

Any who, enough babbling. Let's get baking!

What you're gonna need: (this makes 4 smore jars)

 4       -      500 ml (16 oz) glass jars
1½   cup   Graham cracker crumbs
 ½    cup   Melted butter
 ⅛    tsp    Salt

 ½    cup   Melted butter
1¼   cup   Sugar
 2       -      Eggs
 1     tsp     Vanilla
 ⅓    cup    Cocoa powder
 ½    cup    Flour
 ¼    tsp     Salt
 ¼    tsp     Baking powder
 12    -       Crushed oreos
  1     -       Bag of marshmallows

How to get yummy:

1)  In a bowl toss the graham cracker crumbs and salt together, and mix in the melted butter
2)  Pour equal-ish portions into the 4 jars and pack down. You will probably need to use a tool to pat the graham cracks down.
3)  Pre heat oven to 350ยบ F
4)  In a bowl mix the melted butter, sugar, eggs and vanilla together. Beat until everything is well blended
5)  In a separate bowl: stir the flour, cocoa powder, salt and baking powder together
6)  Slowly combine the flour mixture to the egg mixture
7)  Once the batter is well blended, stir in the crushed Oreo pieces
8)  *This is optional, but I recommend it!! Put the brownie batter into a piping bag before trying to put into the jars*
9)  Put the batter as evenly as possible into each jar
10)  Place the jar onto a cookie sheet and into the oven
11)  Bake for 30- 40 mins, until a toothpick comes out clean
12)  Fill the jars with marshmallows and put them back in the oven on broil
13)  Watch them closly. It wont take long for the marshmallows to start browning
14)  Once the marshmallows are nice and browned, let cool off

Happy Baking!
