Ingredients

Scale

Base Mix

  • 6 tablespoons butter
  • 16 ounces mini marshmallows
  • 8 cups Golden Grahams cereal
  • 1/2 cup mini semisweet chocolate chips

Topping

  • 5 ounces mini marshmallows
  • 1/4 cup Golden Grahams cereal
  • 1/4 cup mini semisweet chocolate chips

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Dish: Grease a 9×13-inch baking dish thoroughly and set it aside to ensure the s’mores bars don’t stick once pressed.
  2. Melt Butter: In a large saucepan over low heat, melt the 6 tablespoons of butter almost completely, making sure not to burn it.
  3. Add Marshmallows: Add 16 ounces of mini marshmallows to the melted butter and stir continuously until the marshmallows are fully melted and the mixture is smooth.
  4. Remove from Heat: Take the saucepan off the heat to prevent further cooking.
  5. Mix in Cereal: Stir in 8 cups of Golden Grahams cereal until the mixture is uniformly combined with the marshmallow-butter base.
  6. Add Remaining Marshmallows and Chocolate Chips: Fold in the remaining 5 ounces of mini marshmallows and 1/2 cup of mini semisweet chocolate chips, mixing gently to distribute evenly.
  7. Press into Dish: Firmly press the cereal mixture into the prepared baking dish to create a compact and even layer.
  8. Add Toppings: Sprinkle the remaining 1/4 cup of Golden Grahams cereal and 1/4 cup of mini semisweet chocolate chips evenly over the pressed layer for an appealing crunch and extra chocolate flavor.
  9. Cool and Serve: Let the bars cool to room temperature so they set properly before cutting into squares and serving.

Notes

  • Use low heat when melting butter and marshmallows to avoid burning.
  • Press the mixture firmly into the pan to help the bars hold their shape.
  • For a richer flavor, use high-quality semisweet chocolate chips.
  • Store leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.
  • For a variation, try adding chopped nuts or using different flavored cereals.
