½ cup unsalted butter
15 oz mini marshmallows
1 tsp vanilla extract
¼ tsp salt
6 cups crispy rice cereal
1 cup crushed graham crackers (plus extra for topping)
1 cup chopped semi-sweet chocolate or chocolate chips

How to Make S’mores Rice Krispie Bars

Step 1: Start by melting butter and marshmallows on the stove with a splash of vanilla and a pinch of salt.

Step 2: Then mix in crispy rice cereal, crushed graham crackers, and the rest of the mini marshmallows for extra gooey texture.

Step 3: Fold in most of the chopped chocolate so it melts into swirls throughout the mix.

Step 4: Press it all into a pan.

Step 5: Then drizzle melted chocolate on top, sprinkle with more marshmallows and graham cracker crumbs, and if you want, torch those marshmallows until perfectly toasted.

Step 6: Let them cool, and cut into squares!

Serve and Enjoy!

Important Recipe Notes

Use fresh marshmallows: Fresh mini marshmallows melt more smoothly and help give the bars that soft, gooey texture.
Do not overheat the marshmallows: Melt them over low to medium heat and stir often. Overheating can make the bars hard once they cool.
Save some marshmallows and chocolate: Set aside a little of each for topping so the bars have plenty of chocolate and marshmallow pieces on top.
When pressing the mixture into the pan, avoid packing it down too firmly. A light press keeps the bars soft and chewy instead of dense.
Use parchment paper or lightly grease the pan so the bars are easier to remove and cut.
If you use a kitchen torch to toast the marshmallows, work quickly and keep the flame moving to avoid burning them.
Give the bars time to set before cutting. This helps them hold their shape and makes cleaner squares.
