I tried this without the corn syrup, and I liked it a lot better... I also added about a cup of marshmallows to throw in with the cereal so they stay whole and chewy. A really delicious recipe! (and EASY)

Awesome! My husband and son love these s'mores bars. I add crushed cereal and mini marshmallows on top. This lets people know what's inside the bars and also makes them more fun, I think!

If your mixture hardened too fast, you probably cooked it rather than heating it just to melting. I think this is better made the day before and given a chance to set up well. Then it is fudgy but not gooey.

I was looking for a very simular recipe and came across this one. After reading some of the other reviews, I came up with some alterations that turned out just as the recipe I was looking for. Instead of melting the marshmallows in with the chocolate, I mixed them in with the cereal. I only used 4 cups marshmallows, and 6 cups cereal. This way, the chocolate mixture was coating the cereal and marshmallows together. Everyone loved them.

Way too gooey and rich. I've had these bars made from a different recipe and they were SO much better and tasted much more like a regular s'more. The recipe is easy to follow and quick to make though.

These are good, but almost anything sweet is okay. They are extremely chewy. They do not however taste like smores. They taste exactly like the ingredients...Golden Graham cereal covered in marshmallows and chocolate. For me, when it's smores I'm craving, substitutions just don't match up to that long time tradition by a campfire. These bars are still a good treat though.

I gave this recipe a three because of the difficulty in making it. The marshmallow mixture is VERY thick and it begins to set as soon as you take it off the stove. After a couple stirs it was nearly impossible to mix the marshmallows into the cereal. I also had a hard time getting everything pressed into a pan - it was more like heaped into the pan. The mixture is just too sticky to do much of anything with. On the bright side, it tastes great. Not really like a s'more, but good in its own right.

Not liking this recipe too much. It is really sweet and too gooey, needs more cereal. It reminds me of a tootie roll in flavor. I like the crunch of a real smore, def needs more cereal. My kids, 5 and 3, wouldn't eat it. Not great.
