Ingredients
- 6 cups Golden Grahams cereal
- 1 cup mini marshmallows
- 1/2 cup chocolate chips
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter
- 1 cup marshmallow fluff
Instructions
- Prepare a 9x13 inch baking pan by lining it with parchment paper, allowing some overhang for easy removal. Lightly grease the parchment paper with non-stick cooking spray.
- In a large microwave-safe bowl, melt the unsalted butter completely. This typically takes about 30-45 seconds on high power.
- Add marshmallow fluff to the melted butter and stir until the mixture is smooth and fully combined. The mixture should be creamy and have no lumps.
- Gradually fold in the Golden Grahams cereal, ensuring each piece is evenly coated with the marshmallow mixture. Use a spatula to gently mix, being careful not to crush the cereal.
- Sprinkle mini marshmallows and chocolate chips over the coated cereal. Gently fold them into the mixture, distributing them evenly throughout.
- Transfer the mixture to the prepared baking pan, using the spatula to spread it evenly and press it down gently. Ensure the surface is relatively smooth and compact.
- Allow the treats to cool and set at room temperature for about 30-45 minutes. The marshmallow mixture will help the treats hold their shape.
- Once set, use the parchment paper overhang to lift the treats out of the pan. Place on a cutting board and slice into 12 even squares.
- For best texture, serve at room temperature. Store in an airtight container for up to 3 days.
Tips
