Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 can (8 oz) refrigerated crescent roll dough
- 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 1 cup mini marshmallows
- 0.5 cup chopped nuts (walnuts or pecans)
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 2 tablespoons brown sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 2 teaspoons all-purpose flour
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a 9x9-inch baking pan with parchment paper, leaving an overhang for easy removal.
Unroll the crescent roll dough and press it into the bottom and slightly up the sides of the prepared pan. Pinch any seams together to seal.
In a small saucepan over medium heat, melt the butter. Stir in the brown sugar and flour, cooking until the mixture thickens slightly, about 1-2 minutes. Remove from heat and stir in the vanilla extract.
Spread the butter-sugar mixture evenly over the crescent roll dough base.
Sprinkle the chocolate chips, marshmallows, and chopped nuts evenly over the base.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the marshmallows are golden and the crescent dough is cooked through.
Allow the bars to cool completely in the pan on a wire rack. Once cooled, use the parchment paper overhang to carefully lift the bars from the pan.
Cut into 12 equal-sized bars and serve. Enjoy!
