Crispy S'more Treats

Even the All-American sweet treat, the s'more, can stand a makeover.

Here, it is transformed into a fun new shape with the Scalloped Bread Tube.

2 1/2 cups cocoa-flavored sweetened rice cereal
6 whole (about 5 x 2-inch) graham crackers, coarsely chopped
3 tablespoons butter or margarine
2 tablespoons packed brown sugar
3 1/2 cups miniature marshmallows, divided
3 /4 cup milk chocolate morsels

Place lid on bottom of Scalloped Bread Tube; spray with butter-flavored nonstick cooking spray. Place cereal in Classic Batter Bowl. Coarsely chop graham crackers using Food Chopper; add to cereal and set aside. In Professional (4-qt.) Casserole, melt butter with brown sugar over low heat, stirring occasionally using Mix 'N Scraper®. Add 2 1/2 cups of the marshmallows; stir until melted. Remove casserole from heat. Add cereal mixture; stir until well coated. Stir in remaining 1 cup marshmallows. Using Large Scoop sprayed with nonstick cooking spray, immediately place a few scoops of cereal mixture in bread tube; press mixture evenly with Tart Shaper. Repeat to fill bread tube. Cool completely. Remove lid from bread tube. Push mixture out onto Cutting Board; cut crosswise into 1/2-inch slices using Serrated Bread Knife.

Melt chocolate morsels in Small Micro-Cooker®, uncovered, on HIGH 1 minute, stirring every 15 seconds, until chocolate is melted and smooth. Pour chocolate into small resealable plastic food storage bag; twist top of bag and secure. Cut a small tip off corner of bag. Decorate treats with chocolate; let stand until set.

Yield: 16 treats

Cook’s Tips: Once the chocolate is firm, place treats between layers of Parchment Paper in a tightly covered container. Store in a cool place at room temperature so they will stay crisp.
