Smores Hot Cereal Recipes

Steps:

• Line an 8-by-8-inch baking dish with parchment paper and lightly coat with cooking spray. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
• Combine the butter and marshmallows in a large microwave-safe bowl and melt in a microwave in 15 second intervals, stirring between every interval, until the marshmallows are completely melted. Alternatively, melt the butter in a large saucepan over medium heat, add the marshmallows and cook, stirring constantly, until the marshmallows are completely melted; remove from the heat. Add the cereal and salt to the melted marshmallow mixture and gently stir until the cereal is completely coated.
• Evenly press the mixture into the prepared baking dish. Set aside to cool for about 30 minutes or refrigerate for 10 to 15 minutes.
• Remove the treats from the pan and slice into 16 squares. Place them on the prepared baking sheet.
• Place the dark and white chocolate chips in each of 2 microwave-safe bowls. Melt in a microwave in 15 second intervals, stirring between every interval, until completely melted. Transfer the melted chips to 2 separate piping bags or resealable bags. Snip the tips and drizzle over the cereal treats, then sprinkle with the marshmallow bits. Before serving, allow to set at room temperature for about 30 minutes or refrigerate for 10 to 15 minutes.

Steps:

• Grease a 1/2 dry measuring cup with butter and line a 12-cup muffin tray with cupcake liners. Or grease the inside of the cups as well if you're not using liners.
• Melt the butter in a large pot over medium heat. Add all but 1 cup of the marshmallows and cook, stirring occasionally, until the marshmallows melt completely, about 5 minutes. Remove from the heat and stir in the vanilla and a pinch of salt. Add the cereal and stir with a rubber spatula, making sure to scrape up the bottom, until the cereal is completely coated. Let the filling cool off for a few minutes and then quickly fold in the reserved 1 cup marshmallows and the chocolate bars.
• Use the prepared measuring cup to scoop the mixture into the cups of the prepared muffin tray. Pat the domes together gently to help the treats hold their shape. Let sit at room temperature until firm, about 30 minutes.
• Store at room temperature in an airtight container for up to 3 days.
