Ingredients Needed

• 16.7 oz. Box of Golden Graham Cereal
• 1 Stick Butter
• 2 TBSP Peanut Butter
• Bag of Mini Marshmallows
• 1 Cup Milk Chocolate Chips
• Non-stick cooking spray

Instructions

Step 1

First thing first, start by spraying a 9×13 inch pan with non-stick baking spray.

Step 2

Next, melt the marshmallows (except 1/2 cup), peanut butter, and the butter together in a microwave-safe bowl.

Step 3

Mix the Golden Graham cereal into the melted marshmallow mixture until it’s well combined.

Step 4

Stir in the remainder of the marshmallows and chocolate chips.

Step 5

Spread the mixture into the 9×13 pan.

Step 6

Let it set up before cutting into squares.

Enjoy!

Notes:

• Don’t like Golden Grahams? Then use graham cracker crumbs (broke up graham crackers).
• Don’t use marshmallow creme or marshmallow fluff!
• It may seem easy, but it won’t set like gooey marshmallows do when they cool off.
• Make sure to wait before pulling in the chocolate chips or you’ll have melted chocolate instead chunks. (I like using pieces from a hershey’s chocolate bar when I want it extra sweet.)
• Can’t have peanut butter? You can use melted butter like Rice Krispie treats. The delicious s’mores bars still work!
