Ingredients
Scale
Chocolate Mixture
- 1 12 ounce bag chocolate chips, semi-sweet or milk
- 1 tablespoon Crisco shortening or vegetable oil
Mix-ins
- 2 cups mini marshmallows
- 2 cups Golden Grahams cereal
Instructions
- Prepare the Pan: Line an 8×8 inch pan with foil and spray it with cooking spray to ensure easy removal of the bars once set.
- Melt Chocolate: Place the chocolate chips and shortening or oil in a large microwave-safe bowl. Heat in 30-second increments, stirring well after each, until the chocolate is fully melted and smooth. This usually takes about 1 to 2 minutes in an 1100W microwave.
- Mix Ingredients: Stir in the Golden Grahams cereal and mini marshmallows to the melted chocolate until everything is evenly coated.
- Shape Bars: Pour the mixture into the prepared pan. Press down firmly to compact the mixture, which may get a little messy but helps the bars hold together.
- Chill: Place the pan in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours to let the bars set completely.
- Serve: Once set, slice into squares. These bars melt like candy, so keep them refrigerated if not eating immediately. They taste best after sitting at room temperature for a few minutes. Store leftovers in an airtight container for up to one week.
Notes
- For easier removal, make sure to line the pan with foil and use cooking spray.
- Pressing the bars firmly helps prevent crumbling.
- Keep bars refrigerated to maintain their shape since they melt quickly at room temperature.
- These bars are best eaten within a week for optimal freshness.
