Step-by-Step Instructions
To start off, preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). First, I like to prepare my baking pan by lining it with parchment paper, allowing for easy removal of the bars later. In a medium bowl, I combine the graham cracker crumbs and melted butter, mixing until well combined. Then, I press this mixture into the bottom of the prepared pan, creating a solid, even layer. The smell of the crumb mixture is divine; it whisked me back to an afternoon spent making treats with my mom. (See the next page below to continue steps…)
