Instructions

Line a 9x9 inch pan with parchment paper and lightly grease the paper with cooking spray or neutral oil.

In a large saucepan, heat the butter and vanilla over medium heat until fully melted.

Turn the heat down to low-medium heat and add the marshmallows, stirring frequently with a rubber spatula until fully melted.

Remove from heat and add in the rice krispies cereal and graham crackers, mixing until fully coated.

Allow the mixture to cool for a few minutes, then fold in the chopped chocolate and chewy caramels.

Immediately transfer to the prepared pan and pack in with a ⅓ measuring cup into an even layer.

Top with extra mini marshmallows, graham crackers, chocolate, and caramels, as desired.

Optional: Broil for 3-5 minutes to toast the marshmallows and melt the chocolate and caramels slightly.

Allow the rice krispies to set at room temperature for at least one hour.

Cut into 16 squares and enjoy!

Tips & Tricks (5)

Butter Temperature Control 🧈
Melt butter over low-medium heat and let it cool slightly before mixing with marshmallows to prevent them from deflating or becoming too greasy.
Caramel Placement Strategy 🍯
Chop caramels into small pieces and fold them in at the very end, just before pressing into the pan, so they stay intact and chewy rather than melting completely into the mixture.
Graham Cracker Layer Technique 🍪
Crush graham crackers into varied sizes (some fine, some chunky) and reserve the larger pieces for the top layer to maintain textural contrast and prevent sogginess.
Chocolate Melting Method 🍫
Use a double boiler or microwave in 20-second intervals with stirring to gently melt semisweet chocolate, preventing it from seizing and ensuring a smooth, glossy coating on your treats.
Perfect Setting Time ⏱️
Refrigerate the treats for at least 2-3 hours before cutting with buttered scissors or a hot knife to achieve clean edges and prevent the treats from crumbling apart.
