The image shows two stacked squares of a chocolate marshmallow cereal treat on a white marbled surface with a few mini marshmallows scattered around. Each square is made up of a mix of crispy golden cereal pieces coated in glossy milk chocolate and dotted with visible white mini marshmallows, creating a bumpy, textured surface. In the background, there is a white plate holding more pieces of the treat, and a clear glass filled with white milk sits beside it. The colors are mainly brown from the chocolate and cereal, white from the marshmallows and milk, and hints of golden cereal. photo taken with an iphone --ar 4:5 --v 7

Ingredients

  • 5 cups mini marshmallows
  • 1 1/2 cups milk chocolate chips
  • 5 tablespoons butter (or margarine)
  • 1/4 cup corn syrup*
  • 7 cups Golden Grahams cereal
  • 1 cup mini marshmallows

Instructions

  1. Step 1: Butter or grease a 9×13 inch baking pan to prepare it for the bars.
  2. Step 2: In a large saucepan, combine 5 cups of mini marshmallows, milk chocolate chips, butter, and corn syrup.
  3. Step 3: Melt the mixture over low heat, stirring gently with a rubber spatula until fully combined and smooth.
  4. Step 4: Remove the pan from heat and immediately stir in the Golden Grahams cereal and the remaining 1 cup of mini marshmallows. The mixture will be very sticky.
  5. Step 5: Spoon the batter into the prepared pan and flatten it evenly using the back of your spatula. Lightly greasing the spatula can help prevent sticking.
  6. Step 6: Let the bars harden at room temperature for about 60 minutes before cutting them into squares.

Tips & Variations

  • For a different flavor, try using semi-sweet or dark chocolate chips instead of milk chocolate.
  • Lightly greasing your spatula makes spreading the sticky mixture much easier.
  • If you prefer crunchier bars, toast the Golden Grahams cereal lightly before mixing.
  • Substitute corn syrup with honey or a light syrup, but note the texture might vary slightly.

Storage

Store the bars in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days. To keep them fresh longer, refrigerate for up to a week. Before serving, you can bring them to room temperature for the best texture. Avoid freezing as it may affect the chewy consistency.

How to Serve

The image shows two stacked dessert squares on a piece of white parchment paper, placed on a white marbled surface. Each square is made of three layers: the bottom layer is a crunchy, light brown cereal base; the middle layer consists of melted chocolate evenly spread, giving a smooth, glossy dark brown color; the top layer has mixed cereal pieces coated with more melted chocolate, some oats and a few small white marshmallows scattered around, adding texture and contrast. Nearby, there is a clear glass filled with milk, adding a fresh look to the scene. photo taken with an iphone --ar 4:5 --v 7

FAQs

Can I use a different cereal instead of Golden Grahams?

Yes, cereals like Rice Krispies or Cheerios can work, but the flavor and texture will change. Golden Grahams provide a unique graham cracker taste that complements the s’mores theme.

Do I need to use corn syrup?

Corn syrup helps keep the bars chewy and prevents crystallization. You can substitute honey or light syrup, but the texture might be slightly different.
