Step-by-Step Instructions
To start, preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) – this is key to getting that perfect texture. Next, line your baking pan with parchment paper, leaving some overhang on the sides, which will make it easier to lift the bars out later. In a large mixing bowl, combine the graham cracker crumbs, cocoa powder, and melted butter. Mix until it resembles wet sand. Then, press this mixture firmly into the bottom of the prepared pan to form a crust. (See the next page below to continue steps…)
