S’mores Treat
July 16, 2011 in snack
My oldest is obsessed with s’mores right now. Between cartoons and commercials and grocery story displays, I literally get asked to make s’mores at least once a day. We did it once, out on the grill, but I have to say it was exhausting. I wasn’t even the one doing the marshmallow melting but the worrying about burned mouths and melted chocolate on clothing was enough to do me in!
I was pretty thrilled to find this recipe which is made in the oven and uses Golden Grahams (yes, the cereal!). They were seriously delicious and my kids were thrilled when they realized what I was making.
If I had another box of Golden Grahams (which is my favorite cereal ever, in case you were wondering) I would be making another batch of these right now!
| S’mores Treat |
- 4 1/2 cups Golden Grahams cereal
- 1/4 cup light corn syrup
- 2 tablespoons butter
- 1 cup milk chocolate chips
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla
- 2 cups mini marshmallows
- Spray a 9 x 13 inch baking pan with oil.
- Pour cereal in a large bowl and set aside while you melt the chocolate.
- In a medium saucepan over medium heat, combine corn syrup, butter and milk chocolate chips. Stir constantly until chocolate chips are melted and ingredients are combined.
- Remove from heat and stir in vanilla. Pour over cereal and stir quickly until cereal is coated with chocolate. Stir in the marshmallows.
- Pour mixture onto cookie sheet and using a slightly damp hand, press into the pan. Let cool before serving.

The s’more craze on food blogs this summer is outta control. And I’m loving EVERY SINGLE RECIPE I come across. I love s’mores, this is no secret :)
Ok, this is a good start, but there is something much, much better for a smores craving. Make rice krispies, but instead of using rice use Golden Grahams. (My suggestion is to go heavy on the mallows, light on the grahams.) After you get them in a greased pan, sprinkle either chocolate chips or chopped hershey bars over the top and press in.
This is seriously the best smore reincarnation there is :)
Oh yum! I’m picking up some Hershey’s bars today to try this!
sounds so easy to make! I love s’mores also, especially eating it together with my family on saturday :) thanks for the resipe.
Oh yumness! I have made rice crispies w golden grahams but this looks so good and dangerous. I think I could eat half the pan!!!
Yum, this looks so addicting!
I bet this snack was hard to stop eating. Looks so yummy!
This looks like an awesome snack!
Oh my gosh. Seriously, this could be dangerous. I can totally see myself scarfing the whole batch in one sitting.
this is one of the first recipes i made on my own growing up. LOVE these!
