Ingredients
- Nonstick cooking spray (or softened butter), for greasing
- 1(10- to 12-ounce/283- to 340-gram) bag marshmallows
- ½cup/113 grams unsalted butter (1 stick)
- 1(10- to 12-ounce/283- to 340-gram) box graham cracker cereal (such as Golden Grahams)
- ¼teaspoon kosher salt (such as Diamond Crystal)
- ½cup/85 grams semisweet chocolate chips
Preparation
- Step 1
Heat the broiler to high and set the rack in the upper third of the oven. Grease a broiler-safe 8- or 9-inch square pan, then add the marshmallows. (They won’t fit in an even layer, and that’s OK.) Broil until deeply browned and smoking, about 1 minute. (Watch closely, as broilers vary.) Stir to expose untoasted sides and broil once again until browned and just starting to smoke. Remove from oven, leaving the broiler on.
- Step 2
In a large pot, melt the ½ cup butter over medium-high. Stir frequently until the hissing subsides and the butter smells toasted and is speckled brown, 3 to 5 minutes. (Keep watch: This happens quickly.) Turn off the heat, then add the marshmallows (the pan may still be hot), and stir vigorously until melted. Working quickly, add the cereal and salt and stir to combine. Add the chocolate and stir to combine.
- Step 3
Immediately scrape the mixture into the prepared pan and press firmly into an even layer. Broil until the top is golden and charred in spots, about 1 minute, watching closely. Let cool completely, then cut into squares or bars. Store, covered, at room temperature for up to 3 days.

I’m confused. The opening narrative describes this as a “mash-up of crispy rice treats and s’mores”. The photo also suggests a rice cereal akin to Rice Chex in addition to the Golden Grahams style cereal in the finished product yet there’s no mention of a rice cereal in the list of ingredients.
When it says "scrape the mixture into the prepared pan" what pan is intended? The same as before and if so how is it "prepared?" Thanks
Toast the marshmallows on oiled foil.
Used large stainless steel skillet because it turns out I own nothing else that's broiler safe
Okay, these were delicious! I might mix the combo up and try this next with cinnamon toast crunch and caramel chips.
I thought this worked just fine in an 8 x 12 pan. I always find these kinds of marshmallow treats to be a bit difficult to mix up, so my finish product has some dry spots where I didn't get enough marshmallow mixed into the cereal. In any case, they are really yummy and the chocolate is great. I used chocolate chips right out of the freezer so they didn't melt entirely, leaving substantial streaks through the treats.
