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.
