FAQs

Can I use a different cereal instead of Golden Grahams?

Yes, cereals like Chex or Rice Krispies can be used as alternatives. Just keep in mind that the texture and flavor will vary slightly.

How do I prevent the marshmallows from melting too much on top?

Adding extra mini-marshmallows after mixing and pressing the bars gives a toasted marshmallow look without melting them completely. You can also lightly toast them under a broiler for a minute, watching carefully to avoid burning.

• For a firmer texture, refrigerate the bars for at least 1 hour before cutting and serving.
• These bars can be stored in an airtight container for up to 3 days at room temperature or up to a week in the refrigerator.
• Light Karo syrup helps provide a chewy texture, but you can substitute with corn syrup if necessary.
