Ingredients
  

1 ½ cups graham cracker crumbs

½ cup unsweetened cocoa powder

1 cup creamy peanut butter

½ cup maple syrup (or honey)

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

1 cup mini marshmallows

½ cup chocolate chips (semisweet or milk chocolate)

½ cup crushed graham crackers (for topping)

Extra mini marshmallows (for topping)

Instructions
 

Prepare the Base: In a large mixing bowl, thoroughly combine 1 ½ cups of graham cracker crumbs with ½ cup of unsweetened cocoa powder. Make sure to mix well to eliminate any clumps and achieve a uniform dry blend.

    Combine Wet Ingredients: In a separate bowl, mix together 1 cup of creamy peanut butter, ½ cup of maple syrup (or honey), and 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract. Stir until the mixture is smooth and homogenous.

      Mix Together: Gradually pour the wet mixture into the dry ingredients. Stir until fully integrated. The resulting mixture should be thick and sticky, with a consistent texture throughout.

        Fold in Marshmallows and Chocolate: Carefully fold in 1 cup of mini marshmallows and ½ cup of chocolate chips. Ensure they are evenly distributed throughout the fudge mixture without breaking the marshmallows.

          Transfer to Pan: Line a 9x9 inch baking dish with parchment paper, leaving an overhang on the sides for easy removal later. Using a spatula, press the fudge mixture evenly into the bottom of the pan, smoothing it out to create an even layer.

            Add Toppings: Evenly sprinkle ½ cup of crushed graham crackers on top of the fudge layer. Add extra mini marshmallows on top for a delightful visual and textural contrast. Gently press them down into the fudge to secure them.

              Chill and Set: Refrigerate the dish for at least 2 hours, allowing the fudge to firm up completely.

                Slice and Serve: Once firm, use the parchment paper to lift the fudge out of the pan. Cut into squares or bars of desired size. These fudge bars can be served chilled or at room temperature for a delicious treat.
