Ingredients
Scale
Main Ingredients
- 6 cups Golden Grahams
- 4 tbsp Butter
- 1 1/2 cups Chocolate Chips
- 5 cups Mini-Marshmallows
- 2 additional cups Mini-Marshmallows
- 1/4 cup Light Karo Syrup
- 1 tsp Vanilla Extract
Instructions
- Prepare the Pan: Spray a 9 x 13 inch baking pan with non-stick spray to ensure the bars do not stick once set. Set the pan aside.
- Measure Cereal: Pour 6 cups of Golden Grahams cereal into a large mixing bowl and set aside for later coating.
- Melt Ingredients: In a large saucepan over low heat, melt 4 tablespoons of butter. Add 1 1/2 cups chocolate chips, 5 cups mini-marshmallows, 1/4 cup light Karo syrup, and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract.
- Combine Until Smooth: Continuously stir the mixture over low heat until the chocolate and marshmallows fully melt together into a smooth, creamy mixture without any lumps.
- Mix with Cereal: Immediately pour the melted mixture over the Golden Grahams in the bowl. Stir gently and thoroughly until all the cereal pieces are evenly coated. Then fold in the additional 2 cups of mini-marshmallows.
- Press into Pan: Transfer the coated cereal mixture into the prepared pan. Press down firmly and evenly to compact the mixture into a uniform layer.
- Optional Topping: If desired, sprinkle extra mini-marshmallows on top for a decorative and toasty finish.
- Cool and Set: Allow the bars to cool completely at room temperature until firm, about 1-2 hours, before cutting into squares and serving.
Notes
- Use low heat when melting to prevent burning the chocolate and marshmallows.
- Press the mixture firmly into the pan to help the bars hold together better.
- Store bars in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.
- For an extra toasty marshmallow top, briefly broil the bars after sprinkling marshmallows, watching carefully to avoid burning.
