Ingredients
Scale
Bars Ingredients
- 6½ cups golden grahams cereal
- 4 tablespoons salted butter
- 7 cups mini marshmallows, divided (use a 16 oz bag)
- 3 Hershey’s milk chocolate bars (1.55 oz each), broken into squares
Instructions
- Prepare the Baking Dish: Spray a 9×13 inch baking dish thoroughly with cooking spray or line it with foil or parchment paper lightly sprayed with cooking spray. Set aside.
- Measure the Cereal: Place 6½ cups of golden grahams cereal into a large mixing bowl.
- Break the Chocolate: Break the Hershey’s milk chocolate bars into individual squares and set aside.
- Melt Marshmallows and Butter: In a large pot over medium heat, melt 6 cups of mini marshmallows together with the 4 tablespoons of butter. Stir constantly and keep the heat low to prevent burning. Cook until the mixture is completely smooth and combined.
- Combine With Remaining Marshmallows and Cereal: Pour the melted marshmallow mixture into the mixing bowl with the golden grahams. Add the remaining 1 cup of mini marshmallows and stir carefully until all ingredients are evenly combined.
- Layer the Bars: Gently press half of the cereal and marshmallow mixture into the prepared pan. Top with half of the chocolate squares evenly spread. Then add the remaining half of the cereal mixture on top and press it down gently.
- Top with Chocolate: Press the remaining Hershey’s chocolate squares onto the top of the bars, pressing lightly to adhere.
- Cool and Serve: You can eat the bars immediately or let them sit at room temperature to cool and set for a better texture. Store any leftovers at room temperature in an airtight container or a gallon-sized Ziploc bag.
Notes
- Use a 16 oz bag of mini marshmallows to have enough for the 7 cups required in the recipe.
- A small 11.7 oz box of Golden Grahams provides about 6.5 cups needed.
- The extra 1 cup of mini marshmallows mixed into the cereal adds extra gooey texture, but can be omitted if desired.
- Pressing the mixture can be sticky; using cooking spray on your fingers or the back of a spoon helps manage this.
- This is a no-bake recipe, ideal for quick and easy dessert preparation.
