Ingredients
Base Ingredients
- 6 cups Rice cereal
- 4 cups mini Marshmallows (about 10 oz)
- 3 tablespoons Butter
Topping
- 1 cup semi-sweet Chocolate chips or chopped chocolate
Instructions
- Melt the butter and marshmallows: In a large saucepan over low heat, melt 3 tablespoons of butter. Add 4 cups of mini marshmallows and stir continuously until completely melted and smooth, creating a sticky and luscious marshmallow mixture.
- Combine with rice cereal: Remove the saucepan from the heat and immediately add 6 cups of rice cereal. Stir carefully but thoroughly to coat all the cereal evenly with the melted marshmallow mixture, ensuring a consistent texture throughout.
- Press mixture into pan: Lightly butter or spray a 9×13 inch baking pan. Transfer the cereal and marshmallow mixture into the pan, then use a buttered spatula or wax paper to press the mixture firmly and evenly into the pan to form a uniform layer about 1.5 to 2 inches thick.
- Melt and spread chocolate topping: In a microwave-safe bowl or over a double boiler, gently melt 1 cup of semi-sweet chocolate chips or chopped chocolate until smooth. Pour the melted chocolate evenly over the packed rice cereal layer, spreading it gently with a spatula to cover the surface completely.
- Chill and set: Allow the chocolate topping to cool and harden by refrigerating the pan for at least 30 minutes. Once set, cut into squares or rectangles and serve or store in an airtight container.
Notes
- Use mini marshmallows for quicker melting and a smoother mixture.
- Press the mixture firmly to avoid crumbly treats.
- For a richer chocolate layer, use high-quality semi-sweet chocolate.
- Store treats in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days or refrigerate for longer freshness.
- Optional: Add a sprinkle of crushed graham crackers on top of the chocolate before it sets to add extra s’mores authenticity and crunch.
