If you grew up in America in the '80s, chances are you have a thing for Golden Grahams cereal. And if you were really into them, you might remember this old recipe for Indoor S'mores. Also called Golden Grahams S'mores, these are no-bake bar cookies made with melted butter, corn syrup and chocolate chips mixed with marshmallows and Golden Grahams. They're one of the most interesting cereal bars and they are not hard to make at all.

Golden Grahams S'mores Bar Updates

The recipe has been updated a little through the years, with the new version being a better in my opinion. However, I put the measurements for the old version in the notes in case you feel like these are different from the ones you remember.

How to Make Them

Here's a quick rundown.

  1. Line a pan with nonstick foil. If making the full batch, use a 9x13 inch pan. For a half batch, use an 8-inch pan.
  2. Melt the butter, corn syrup, chocolate chips and 4 cups of the marshmallows in a large pot. Remove from hea.
  3. Stir in vanilla, remaining marshmallows and cereal, stirring to coat cereal.
  4. Spread the mixture in a pan and press down tightly with more nonstick foil or a piece of parchment. If you want, you can sprinkle more cereal and marshmallows on top before pressing so that you have some uncoated marshmallows and cereal showing.
  5. Chill or freeze until very firm, then lift from the pan and cut into squares.
