S'mores Rice Krispie Treats

0 comments
A year... almost an entire year has passed since I took the time to update this blog and share recipes :-( After such a crazy amount of time I really can't think of anything that would justify such a prolonged absence, so I'll just leave that be and offer up this fabulous bit of pure YUM:
S'mores Rice Krispie Treats! I know I am not the first, and these are definitely not the most gourmet or special SRKTs you could dig up online, but they came together fast, easily, and taste delish!
Without further ado....... here's the recipe.

S'mores Rice Krispie Treats

Ingredients:
3 tbsp butter or margarine
2 cups slightly crushed Golden Grahams (or the no-name version, which is what I used; moms have to    budget!!!!!)
4 cups Rice Krispies (or, as before, no-name)
1/2 cup Chocolate Cheerios
1 10 oz bag marshmallows (save plastic bag they came in; trust me!)
1/2 cup chocolate chips

Directions:
Line a 9x13" pan with aluminum foil or wax paper. Spray lightly with cooking spray or lightly grease with margarine. In a large bowl, combine cereals and toss gently. In another large bowl, measure out butter or margarine. Melt in microwave, approximately 30 seconds; add marshmallows and return to microwave. Cook in 30 second intervals, stirring each time you check, just until marshmallows puff up. Working quickly, dump cereals into the marshmallow bowl and stir quickly and thoroughly. Add chocolate chips and pour the whole thing into the prepared pan.
Place plastic marshmallow bag on your hard, lightly spray it with cooking spray and use your greasy, plastic-covered hand to spread and press down the mixture into all corners of the pan. When the whole thing looks nice and uniform, toss the bag, place the pan somewhere to let it cool and set, and prepare to be AMAZED.

I know my picture is not amazing, but these things ARE!

Once cool and firm, cut into 24 squares and serve.
