Ingredients

Main Ingredients

  • 6 Tablespoons salted butter
  • 1 (12-ounce) bag jumbo marshmallows
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 4 cups Rice Krispies cereal
  • 2 cups Golden Grahams cereal
  • 2 1/2 cups mini marshmallows, divided (about 1/2 of a 10-ounce bag)
  • 4 Hershey bars, broken into pieces

Instructions

  1. Prepare Baking Dish: Line a 9×9-inch baking dish with parchment paper or butter it generously for easier removal later. Set aside.
  2. Melt Butter: In a large saucepan over medium heat, melt the 6 tablespoons of salted butter until completely melted and bubbling gently.
  3. Add Marshmallows: Add the entire 12-ounce bag of jumbo marshmallows to the melted butter. Stir continuously and gently until the marshmallows are fully melted and form a smooth mixture.
  4. Flavor and Combine Cereals: Remove the saucepan from heat. Stir in 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract. Then fold in the 4 cups of Rice Krispies cereal, 2 cups Golden Grahams cereal, and 1 1/2 cups of the mini marshmallows. Stir until all cereal pieces are well coated with the marshmallow mixture.
  5. Layer the Mixture: Transfer half of the cereal mixture into the prepared baking dish, spreading it evenly. Sprinkle half of the broken Hershey bar pieces and half of the remaining 1 cup of mini marshmallows over this layer.
  6. Top and Press: Add the remaining cereal mixture on top, gently pressing it down to compact slightly but avoid compressing too hard to maintain a light texture. Add the remaining Hershey bar pieces and mini marshmallows on top as a final layer.
  7. Cut and Serve: Allow treats to cool and set slightly at room temperature, then cut into small squares and serve.

Notes

  • Storage: Best enjoyed the day they are made. Store leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days. Reheat briefly in the microwave for 15-20 seconds to soften before serving.
  • Freezing: Wrap tightly in plastic wrap and aluminum foil and freeze for up to 3 months. To thaw, leave on the counter for about 30 minutes or microwave for 15-20 seconds until warm.
  • Rice Krispies Alternative: You can substitute with another fresh puffed rice cereal or use all Golden Grahams, though texture may be denser.
  • Golden Grahams Substitutes: Crushed graham crackers, Teddy Grahams, Fiber One Honey Squares, or Cinnamon Toast Crunch work well.
  • Chocolate Variations: Use any chocolate you prefer such as chips, chunks, Ghirardelli squares, or peanut butter cups to enhance the flavors.
