S'Mores Bars!


Need a sweet treat in this super hot weather? Oh yeah! You don't need to bake or heat up your grill or even your stove to make this amazing treat.  All you need are the ingredients, a 4 cup Pyrex measuring cup, a microwave (or a stove if you like heating up your house) and a 13x9 baking pan.  OH YES.

S'Mores Bars!

The ingredients: Almost a box (about 8 cups) of "graham squares," 1.5 cups chocolate chips, a container of  Ricemellow Cream (rice based, vegan marshmallow spread), 5 T. butter or margarine (I used EB), 1-2 tsp of vanilla extract, and 1/4 to 1/3 cup of rice syrup or corn syrup (spray your measuring cup with canola oil first so it slides right out!) and a small pinch of salt (1/8 to 1/4 tsp).


Add the chocolate chips, butter, and rice syrup to a 4 cup Pyrex measuring cup.  Microwave on high for a minute at a time, stirring in between, until melted.  Then add the whole container of Ricemellow Cream.  Microwave again for about a minute and stir to incorporate.


Oh yeah!

Now, simply pour your cereal into a large bowl (you can also add mini marshmallows or extra chocolate chips to the bowl, about 1/2 to 1 cup is what I would recommend).  Pour the melted chocolate marshmallow mixture over the cereal, stir well to coat all the cereal, and pour it into a buttered 13x9x2 inch baking pan.  

Cover her and put her in the fridge for a while to firm up.  Cut into bars as needed.  

You can also store the bars, wrapped individually in foil, in the freezer for up to a year.  They are totally fine after a year (trust me!).  

Enjoy!!

    1. Thanks, Vic! You would love these for your nighttime snack! They are quick, easy, will not in any way heat up your house, and really, really ridiculously good.

      Go for it!!
