Crispy No-Bake Vegan S'mores Bars

In a large saucepan over low to medium-low heat, melt the vegan butter until just liquified. Stir gently to prevent burning.
Stir in 2 cups of vegan mini marshmallows, allowing them to melt slowly. Keep stirring so they don’t stick to the bottom of the pan. Stir in the 1 tsp of vanilla extract until incorporated. You’ll have a sticky, glossy mixture when the marshmallows are fully melted.
Remove the saucepan from the heat and allow it to cool for a few minutes.

Spray or grease an 8 x 8 or 9 inch baking dish and line with parchment paper to allow for easy removal.
In a large bowl, add the 2 cups of crushed cinnamon graham crackers, 1 cup of chocolate chips, and 1 1/2 cups of vegan mini marshmallows. Mix together.

Add the marshallow melt to the large bowl. Gently fold the into the dry ingredients until just incorporated. It will remain slightly crumbly and you will have some melting of the chocoalte chips.
Press the mixture firmly into the parchment lined baking dish, creating an even layer. Place the dish in the refrigerator for at least 30 min to 1 hour or until set.

*Serving size will depend on the size of the baking dish used and the desired size of the bar slices

*Be sure to spray or grease the baking dish then line it with parchment to make it easier to lift the s'mores bars out and prevent sticking

*For an extra toasty flavor, you can carefully run a small butane torch over the tops of the marshmallows after pressing them into the dish
