Golden Graham S’mores Bars

Who says you can only make buttery marshmallow bars with Rice Krispies?! Not me, that’s who. I don’t know why Rice Krispie treats though they could monopolize the marshmallow cereal bar field, but these Golden Graham s’more bars are giving Rice Krispie treats a run for their money. They’re made with golden grahams in place of the Rice Krispie cereal, and are obviously loaded with chocolate and mini marshmallow so you get all that nostalgic s’mores flavor.

They’re no-bake, super easy to make (like, 5 minutes easy), affordable and pretty much the perfect Summer dessert to whip up when you don’t have a campfire handy to satisfy your s’mores cravings

Ingredients for Golden Graham s’mores bars

I like to call this kind of a recipe “a corner store recipe” because it’s the type of recipe that you can generally find all the ingredients for at a corner store or gas station, so you don’t even have to trek to the grocery store to throw it together. Here’s your shopping list…I don’t care where you find your ingredients from 🙂

• Marshmallows
• Golden Grahams Cereal
• Chocolate
• Butter
• Salt

Our tips for making perfect Golden Graham s’mores bars every time

These Golden Grahams bars are one of my favorite no-bake bars to make because they are SO easy to throw together. So easy, in fact, that I have made them hundreds of times and am therefore an expert. These are my three fail proof tips for getting perfectly soft and gooey s’mores bars every time.

• Don’t overcook the marshmallows. This is the worst mistake you can make when it comes to making marshmallow treats. If you cook the marshmallows for too long they’ll get SUPER sticky, which can make your bars almost painfully chewy (it will still be delicious, but it will give you a jaw workout).
• Work quickly. The only tricky thing about marshmallow bars is that they can get sticky and hard to work with real fast if the melted marshmallows start to harden. I recommend working quickly so that it’s easy to fold everything together and get it into your pan!
• Press a few extra toppings on top of your bars. Sometimes all that mixing can leave your stir-ins looking a little tired and less appealing. I like to press a few extra marshmallows, chocolate pieces, and Golden Grahams on top solely for presentation purposes! But they are also tasty 🙂

How to store these marshmallow s’mores bars?

These Golden Grahams s’mores bars stay soft and chewy for days as long as they’re store correctly! We like to store these in an airtight plastic bag or container in the fridge. I find that keeping them in the fridge helps them to stay fresher longer. And I also just think they’re pretty tasty cold!

You can also freeze these in a freezer safe plastic bag for up to 3 months! Simply take out of the fridge and place on the counter for a few hours to thaw them out before eating. Or gnaw on a frozen one like a little s’mores gremlin if you’re impatient like I am. Heh.

K, love you BYE.
