Ingredients
  

Base Ingredients
  • 6 Tablespoons salted butter Use salted butter for a little savory contrast.
  • 1 (12-ounce) bag jumbo marshmallows Jumbo marshmallows melt down to create a silkier base.
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 4 cups Rice Krispies Can substitute with gluten-free rice cereal if needed.
  • 2 cups Golden Grahams cereal Optional; can replace with another toasted oat cereal.
  • 2 1/2 cups mini marshmallows (divided) About 1/2 of a 10-ounce bag.
  • 4 Hershey bars (broken up into pieces) Feel free to substitute with any chocolate bar you prefer.

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Line a 9×9 baking dish with parchment paper or butter for easy removal.
  2. Melt the butter in a large saucepan over medium heat, ensuring it does not brown.
  3. Add jumbo marshmallows to the melted butter and stir until melted and smooth.
  4. Remove from heat and stir in vanilla extract. Add Rice Krispies, Golden Grahams, and 1 1/2 cups of miniature marshmallows. Mix until evenly coated.
  5. Transfer half of the cereal mixture into the prepared pan, then sprinkle with half of the chopped Hershey's bars and half of the remaining mini marshmallows.
  6. Add the remaining cereal mixture and press gently into the pan. Top with remaining Hershey's bars and mini marshmallows.
  7. Cut into squares to serve.

Notes

Store leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to three days. Use parchment between layers to prevent sticking. For longer storage, freeze individual squares. Revive stale treats by microwaving for a few seconds.
