Ingredients
Scale
Main Ingredients
- 5 cups mini marshmallows
- 1 1/2 cups milk chocolate chips
- 5 tablespoons butter (or margarine)
- 1/4 cup corn syrup
- 7 cups Golden Grahams cereal
- 1 cup mini marshmallows (additional)
Instructions
- Prepare the Pan: Butter or grease a 9×13 inch baking pan thoroughly to prevent sticking.
- Melt Ingredients: In a large saucepan, combine 5 cups of mini marshmallows, milk chocolate chips, butter, and corn syrup. Heat over low heat while stirring gently with a rubber spatula until everything is melted and smooth.
- Mix Cereal and Mini Marshmallows: Remove the melted mixture from the heat and place it on a heatproof surface. Immediately stir in the 7 cups of Golden Grahams cereal and the remaining 1 cup of mini marshmallows until well combined. The mixture will be very sticky.
- Transfer to Pan: Spoon the sticky mixture into the prepared baking pan. Use the back of a lightly greased spatula to flatten and evenly press down the mixture for compact bars.
- Set and Serve: Allow the bars to harden at room temperature for about 60 minutes. Once set, cut into squares and serve.
Notes
- Lightly greasing your spatula before pressing the mixture into the pan helps prevent sticking.
- Using a heatproof surface to place the pan off the heat prevents overheating and burning of the marshmallow mixture.
- You can store leftover bars in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.
- If corn syrup is unavailable, a light honey or golden syrup can be a substitute but may slightly alter texture and flavor.
