Steps:

• Heat oven to 350°F. Line 9-inch square pan with nonstick foil, allowing foil to hang over sides of pan for easy removal after baking.
• In medium bowl, beat cream cheese and butter with electric mixer on medium speed until well blended. Add egg; beat well. Stir in cake mix by hand until well combined (mixture will be thick). With hands buttered or sprayed with cooking spray, press about 2 1/4 cups cake mixture in pan. Pour condensed milk on top of cake mixture. Top with crushed graham crackers, marshmallow halves and half of the chocolate pieces. Drop remaining cake mixture by spoonfuls on top.
• Bake 32 to 35 minutes or until marshmallows are golden brown and cake mixture is set on top. Remove from oven to cooling rack; cool 15 minutes. Top with remaining chocolate pieces. Cool completely, at least 2 1/2 hours. Cut into 4 rows by 4 rows.

S'MORES CHEWY COOKIE BARS

Steps:

• Heat oven to 350°F.
• Line an 8" square baking pan with aluminum foil, leaving enough overhang on the sides. Spray with non-stick spray. Set aside.
• In a medium size bowl, whisk together the flour, graham cracker crumbs, baking powder, salt, and cinnamon. Set aside.
• In a large bowl using a handheld or stand mixer, cream the butter and brown sugar together on medium speed until mixture is creamy and smooth. Add the egg and vanilla extract. Continue to mix until combined, scraping down the sides of the bowl as necessary.
• Turn the mixer down to low speed and slowly add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients. Mix until combined.
• Press approximately 2/3 of the graham cookie dough evenly into the prepared pan. Spread the Marshmallow Creme on top. I find the best way to do this is to scoop out the entire amount of Creme into the middle of the dough, spray a spatula generously with non-stick spray, and spread it as best as you can. Sprinkle the marshmallow layer evenly with the chocolate chips. Mold the remaining cookie dough into 5 or 6 flat pieces and layer on top of the chocolate chips. Spread around with your hands the best you can. If some chocolate chips and marshmallow spots are exposed, that's completely ok.
• Bake the bars for 26-28 minutes, or until the top is lightly golden brown and the spots of Marshmallow Creme that stuck out are just beginning to brown. Allow to cool completely on a wire rack before cutting into squares.

Grease the foil well with the softened butter.
• In your food processor, grind the graham crackers into a fine meal (you need 2 cups). In a large bowl, combine your crumbs with the sugar, sea salt and melted butter. The mixture should look and feel like wet sand. Set aside a heaping 1/2 cup of the crumb mixture for the topping. Evenly press the remaining crumb mixture into the bottom the foil-lined pan.
