S'mores Treats

Who doesn't love a perfectly toasted and melted s'mores?  Ok, who has actually ever managed to make one where the marshmallow is nicely toasted and actually melts the chocolate a bit?!  Definitely not me!  Also, it is not every day, or in my case every year that I manage to be someplace where I can make s'mores over the fire, so these tasty little treats are the perfect substitute!

These come together the same way as a traditional rice krispie treat, but instead of a rice cereal you substitute Golden Grahams and then add chocolate chips in at the end.  So simple and brilliant!

This is pretty basic in how it comes together.  You melt the butter and then add the marshmallows.

Once melted, remove from heat and dump in the cereal and stir to coat.  Once coated, stir in the chocolate chips and pour into prepared pan.

The recipe does say to put it into a square 9x9 pan, mine ended up being very thick so next time I might increase the marshmallows by a cup and a cup more of cereal and just put it into a 9x13 pan.  Once in the pan, sprinkle some more chocolate chips on top and light press on them. Let it cool before cutting into squares.
Enjoy!
