- 1/2 cup Unsalted Butter
- 1 1/2 cups Graham Crackers, crushed
- 1 cup Milk Chocolate Chips or Chopped Chocolate Bar
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla Extract
- Pinch of Salt (Optional but Recommended)
Instructions
- Prepare Your Pan: Grab a 9×13-inch baking pan and line it with parchment paper, leaving an overhang on the sides.
- Melt the Butter: In a large pot, melt the unsalted butter over low to medium-low heat.
- Add Marshmallows and Vanilla: Once the butter is melted, add two-thirds of the mini marshmallows and stir until completely melted and smooth. Remove from heat and stir in the vanilla extract.
- Incorporate Cereal and Graham Crackers: Add the crisp rice cereal and half of the crushed graham crackers into the melted marshmallow mixture and fold gently until fully coated.
- Press into Pan: Transfer the mixture into the prepared pan and gently press it down evenly.
- Top with S’mores Goodness: Sprinkle the remaining mini marshmallows, milk chocolate chips, and the rest of the crushed graham crackers over the top.
- Toast (Optional but Highly Recommended!): Use a kitchen torch to toast the marshmallows until golden brown, or broil in the oven for 1-2 minutes, watching closely.
- Cool Completely: Let the bars cool completely at room temperature for 1-2 hours.
- Cut and Serve: Lift the bars out using the parchment paper and cut into desired sizes.
