Equipment

Rimmed Baking Sheet
Parchment Paper
Microwave Safe Bowl

Ingredients

1 16 ounce container Chocolate Candy Coating
1 box Golden Grahams Cereal
3 cups Mini Marshmallows
1/2 cup Chocolate Chips

Instructions

Melt the chocolate. In a microwave-safe bowl or the original container, adhere to the package guidelines for melting the chocolate candy coating. Typically, this entails microwaving it for approximately 2 minutes, with regular stirring every 30 seconds, until it achieves a smooth, fully melted consistency. Exercise care to avoid overheating the candy coating, as excessive heat may result in scorching and thickening, which can hinder an even coating of the mix.
Coat the cereal. In a spacious bowl, transfer the Golden Grahams cereal and drizzle the melted chocolate over it. Gently mix to ensure an even coating on the cereal. Then, transfer the coated cereal onto the lined baking sheet, spreading it out evenly into a single layer.
Layer on the mix-ins. Spread the remaining ingredients on top starting with the largest items such as the pretzels and finishing with the smallest such as the chocolate chips.

Notes

- Work quickly. After melting the chocolate, it's crucial to act swiftly to prevent it from setting too rapidly. The chocolate serves as the binding agent, keeping all the other mix-ins together.

- Stir gently. When combining the candy coating with the cereal, stir gently and thoroughly to ensure an even coating, but also to avoid breaking the cereal pieces. A rubber spatula can be useful for this.

- Cool completely. After mixing, spread the snack mix on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper and allow it to cool completely. This helps the coating set and ensures a crunchy texture.

Storage Information

Cool and Dry: Before storing, ensure that your s'mores snack mix has cooled completely. It should be at room temperature and no longer warm to the touch.

Transfer to an air-tight container: Place the snack mix into an airtight container, preferably one made of clean and dry plastic or glass, with a secure, well-fitting lid.

Store at Room Temperature: For optimal freshness, store your snack mix at room temperature. Select a cool, dry location that is shielded from direct sunlight and moisture. It's advisable to refrain from refrigerating the mix, as the cold and humidity can potentially alter its texture.
