S'mores Krispie Treats

About two years ago my friend had a "Favorite Things" party.  It was a cute party idea where each guest spends a certain amount of money on a few of their favorite things.  Then everyone trades their favorite things with each other.  It was fun to see what everyone loved and to get my fun package.  The girl who bought my package was a whiz with her money.  I couldn't believe how much she was able to buy with $25!  But the true highlight of the party for me were the party snacks.  They served some delicious and tasty s'mores bars that I instantly fell in love with.  If I said I went back for thirds would you think poorly of me?  There was just something about the combo of the Graham Cereal, Chocolate Chips, and Marshmallow-y goodness that kept me coming back for more. 

I needed a dessert for a party my sister threw the other day and this tasty treat came to mind.  I searched online and found this post and I knew we were in business.  Everyone at the party loved this treat.  People gobbled it up in no time.  I only ate two pieces this time..but would have eaten more if I hadn't filled up on all the other goodies at the party.  Give these a try when you need a quick and easy dessert.  You will be glad you did.

You will need Golden Grahams Cereal, Butter, Marshmallows, and Milk Chocolate Chips.

Start off by buttering a dish..nobody wants these tasty bars to stick to the dish so don't skimp. 

In a pot over medium heat add the Butter and let it melt.

Then add the Marshmallows.

Stir together until everything is all melted together and gooey.

Looks like my helper smelled the yummy Mallowyness and came to check it out.

Pour the Cereal into a large bowl.

Pour the Marshmallow meltyness over the top.

Stir gently to get the Marshmallow sauce all over the Cereal.

Wait a few minutes for it to cool down a bit..then add in the Milk Chocolate Chips!  Buy the good ones..you won't be sorry.

Gently press the mixture into the Buttered dish.

Melt a bit of the Chocolate Chips and use a spoon and drizzle the melted Chocolate over the top.

Cut into squares and Enjoy!

1/4 C Butter
1 (10 oz) Bag Marshmallows
1 Box Golden Grahams Cereal
1-2 C Milk Chocolate Chips

Heat a saucepan over medium heat and once the pan is warm add in the Butter.  Once the Butter is melted add in the Marshmallows.  Stir the Butter and Marshmallows together until the Marshmallows are completely melted.

 Place the Cereal in a large bowl and add the Marshmallow sauce.  Gently stir everything together, making sure to coat all of the Cereal pieces.  Let cool for a few minutes.

Meanwhile Butter a 9x13 dish, don't be shy you don't want the cereal goodness to stick to the dish.

Add the Chocolate chips to the Cereal/ marshmallow mixture and gently stir them around.  Add the mixture to the Buttered dish and press down lightly.  You can eat them like this..or to take it to the next level you can melt a little more Chocolate and drizzle it over the top.

Cut into squares and Enjoy!
