Ingredients
Base 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 Pan: Butter or grease a 9x13 inch baking pan to prevent sticking and set aside.
- Melt Ingredients: In a large saucepan, combine 5 cups of mini marshmallows, milk chocolate chips, butter, and corn syrup. Melt over low heat while gently stirring with a rubber spatula to ensure even melting and prevent burning.
- Combine Mixture: Once fully melted, remove the pan from heat and place it on a heat-proof surface. Immediately stir in the 7 cups of Golden Grahams cereal along with the remaining 1 cup of mini marshmallows; the mixture will become very sticky.
- Transfer and Flatten: Spoon the sticky mixture into the prepared baking pan. Use the back of a spatula, lightly greased if needed, to flatten the mixture evenly across the pan.
- Set Bars: Allow the bars to cool and harden at room temperature for about 60 minutes before cutting into squares and serving.
Notes
- Use light greasing on your spatula when pressing down the mixture to avoid sticking.
- Corn syrup helps to bind the bars and maintain chewiness; do not omit or substitute if possible.
- Store bars in an airtight container at room temperature to maintain freshness.
- These bars are best enjoyed within 2-3 days for optimal texture.
