Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 6 cups Golden Grahams cereal
- 4 cups mini marshmallows
- 2 cups semisweet chocolate chips
- 0.5 cups unsalted butter
- 0.75 cups light corn syrup
- 1 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 0.25 teaspoons salt
Instructions
Grease a 9x13-inch baking dish with butter or non-stick cooking spray. Set it aside.
In a large saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat.
Stir in the light corn syrup and salt, and heat until the mixture begins to bubble slightly.
Reduce the heat to low and add the semisweet chocolate chips. Stir constantly until the chocolate chips are fully melted and the mixture is smooth.
Remove the saucepan from heat and add the vanilla extract. Stir to combine.
Add the mini marshmallows to the saucepan and stir until they are completely melted and incorporated into the mixture.
Gently fold in the Golden Grahams cereal until all pieces are evenly coated with the chocolate-marshmallow mixture.
Quickly transfer the mixture to the prepared 9x13-inch dish and press it evenly with a spatula. Be careful not to pack it too tightly.
Allow the Golden Graham Candy to cool completely at room temperature, about 1-2 hours. For faster results, you can refrigerate it for 30-45 minutes.
Once cooled, cut into squares or bars and serve. Store leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days.
