Indoor S'more Treats


This is a super easy and fast recipe to throw together if you're looking for a quick dessert or need to make something for a bake sale! They taste just like s'mores - with no campfire required :)

Ingredients:


10 cups Golden Grahams cereal (or break up graham crackers into small chunks)
8 cups mini marshmallows
2 cups chocolate chips
2/3 cup butter or margarine
2 tsp. vanilla extract


Directions:

Measure cereal into a very large bowl (you could also divide this between two large bowls if you don't have one extra large bowl). In a saucepan, heat 6 cups of the marshmallows with the chocolate chips and butter over low heat, stirring frequently until melted. Remove from heat and stir in the vanilla extract.

Pour the marshmallow mixture over the cereal. Quickly toss with a large spoon or spatula until the cereal is completely coated. Stir in the remaining 2 cups of marshmallows until evenly combined.

Press the mixture into a greased 9"x11" baking pan or do what I did and line muffin cups with paper liners and fill each cup with a ball of the mixture. Refrigerate for 10 minutes until firm enough to cut into bars or until the individual cups are firm. Store in an airtight container in the fridge to prevent melting.

This recipe makes about 28 individual muffin cup portions or 24 bars - so feel free to halve it if you don't need as much.
