More About This Recipe
- Two kinds of chocolate cereal plus the usual crispy bars stuff make these easy, gooey chocolaty treats doable in minutes. Soft and gooey, these bars call for just a few easy ingredients and taste so good, the kids in one household called them “utterly ahhhmazeballs." Get your main ingredients lined up: Hershey™’s Cookies & Cream AND Chocolate Toast Crunch (for that extra chocolatey kick), butter and marshmallows. From here things move quickly, so buckle up and get ready for dessert. Now, if you’re feeling fancy, you can pipe a bit of melted dark chocolate and Betty Crocker vanilla frosting up top. It’s like extra, extra cookies and cream flavor. But they taste great plain too. Once the bars cool, serve them up to everyone you love!
