Make chewy, sweet marshmallow bars using Lucky Charms cereal, finished with a coating of melted chocolate.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 6 tablespoons unsalted butter
  • 1 (10 ounce) package miniature marshmallows
  • 6 cups Lucky Charms cereal
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 12 ounces semi-sweet chocolate chips or melting wafers
  • 1 teaspoon coconut oil (optional, for smoother dipping)

Instructions

  1. Lightly grease a 9×13 inch baking pan or line it with parchment paper, leaving an overhang for easy removal.
  2. In a large saucepan over low heat, melt the butter.
  3. Add the marshmallows to the melted butter and stir constantly until they are completely melted and smooth. Remove the pan from the heat.
  4. Stir in the vanilla extract.
  5. Add the Lucky Charms cereal to the marshmallow mixture. Fold gently until the cereal is evenly coated. Do not overmix.
  6. Press the mixture evenly into the prepared baking pan. Use buttered hands or wax paper to prevent sticking. Let the bars cool and set for at least 1 hour at room temperature.
  7. Once set, cut the mixture into squares or rectangles.
  8. Prepare the chocolate: Place the chocolate chips (and coconut oil, if using) in a microwave-safe bowl. Microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring well after each interval, until the chocolate is smooth and fully melted.
  9. Dip the bottom or top of each marshmallow bar into the melted chocolate, or drizzle the chocolate over the bars.
  10. Place the dipped bars on a sheet of parchment paper to allow the chocolate to set completely. This can be done at room temperature or in the refrigerator for faster setting.

Notes

  • If you want a thicker chocolate coating, you may need to melt a second batch of chocolate.
  • For cleaner cuts on the bars before dipping, chill the entire pan of set bars in the refrigerator for 30 minutes.
  • Use high-quality melting wafers for the easiest, shiniest chocolate coating without tempering.
