S'More Bars Please!

We tend to have 'extra' kids over almost every day/night. As a matter of fact this morning as I write this it's only the 4th (fourth) morning since June 1st that we haven't had at least one extra teen or pre-teen overnight and I've awakened to a house that only has my own three kids asleep in it! I like to have fun snacks on hand for them to eat while watching movies or playing Playstation, and this week I took 2 different recipes, tweaked them, and came up with these delicious bars.




S'More Bars

5 c cocoa krispie cereal
1 plastic wrapped package of graham crackers (3 usually come in a box - use 1 pkg.)
6 T butter
Scant 1/3 c brown sugar
1 package mini marshmallows
1 c mini chocolate chips

Prepare a 9X13" pan by spraying it with Pam style spray or butter by hand. Crush the graham crackers in a food processor or by hand with a rolling pin or P. Chef food chopper until coarsely crushed in pieces. Mix the cereal, graham crackers 1 c mini marshmallows and 1 c mini chocolate chips in a large bowl.

Melt the butter in the microwave with the brown sugar. Stir. Add the rest of the bag of marshmallows and microwave about 1-2 minutes until the marshmallows puff up and double in size over the bowl. Stir this mixture into the cereal. Press into the prepared pan. Let cool completely before cutting.Print Friendly and PDF
