Campfire S'mores Rice Krispie Treats (Print-Friendly Version)

Chewy, gooey squares blend marshmallow, chocolate, and cereal with graham crackers for nostalgic campfire flavor.

# Ingredients You'll Need:

→ Base Mixture

01 - 113 g unsalted butter
02 - 450 g mini marshmallows, plus 2 extra cups divided
03 - 2.5 ml vanilla extract
04 - 210 g Rice Krispies cereal (approx. 7 cups)

→ S’mores Additions

05 - 100 g graham crackers, broken into bite-sized pieces (approx. 2 cups)
06 - 260 g semi-sweet chocolate chips, divided (1.5 cups total)

# How to Make It:

01 - Grease a 23x33 cm baking dish with butter or non-stick spray to ensure easy release of the treats.
02 - In a large pot, melt the butter over low heat, stirring occasionally to avoid browning.
03 - Add 450 g mini marshmallows to the melted butter. Stir continuously until marshmallows are fully melted and the mixture is smooth.
04 - Remove pot from heat and stir in vanilla extract until thoroughly combined.
05 - Quickly add Rice Krispies cereal and broken graham crackers to the marshmallow mixture. Stir until evenly coated.
06 - Gently fold in 170 g chocolate chips (1 cup) and 60 g extra mini marshmallows (1 cup). Mix until distributed; some chocolate chips will partially melt.
07 - Pour mixture into prepared baking dish. Using a greased spatula or wax paper, press mixture evenly into the pan.
08 - Sprinkle remaining mini marshmallows (1 cup) and chocolate chips (approximately 45 g or 0.25 cup) evenly over the surface.
09 - Allow the treats to cool at room temperature for 1-2 hours until fully set.
10 - Cut the set mixture into squares. For a campfire experience, skewer a square on a roasting stick and heat over open flame until golden and warm. Exercise caution as filling becomes hot.

# Extra Information:

01 - Store cooled treats in an airtight container at room temperature for up to one week. For longer storage, wrap well and freeze for up to two months.
02 - If preferred warm, microwave single portions for 10-15 seconds, monitoring closely to prevent overheating.
03 - For a nutty variation, incorporate 1/2 cup of peanut butter to the melted marshmallow mixture, or add 1 cup chopped nuts with dry ingredients.
04 - Low heat is essential when melting butter and marshmallows to achieve a smooth texture and avoid burning.
05 - Quickly mix in cereal and graham crackers after removing from heat to ensure even coating before the mixture sets.
06 - Grease utensils or use wax paper for pressing to prevent sticking and achieve an even surface.
