Ingredients

5 tablespoons butter
8 cups Golden Grahams cereal
3.5 ounces marshmallow creme 1/2 small container
10 ounce mini marshmallows
3/4 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
2 Hershey Bars broken into pieces, optional

Instructions

Melt butter in a large dutch oven over medium heat. Once the butter starts to melt, add the marshmallow creme. Over low heat, stir to combine.
When butter and marshmallow creme are combined add 5 ounces of regular mini marshmallows. Stir to combine.
When the marshmallows are nearly melted remove from heat and add the cereal about four cups at a time. Stir well. Add chocolate chips and remaining marshmallows, stir well.
Pour into a 9x13 pan. Wet hands and smooth out the top or pat down with the butter wrapper. Sprinkle Hershey bar pieces over the top. Cool before serving.

Notes

I rarely ever say this, but this is one recipe that I can't tell the difference between using butter or margarine
Marshmallow creme can be left out to decrease gooeyness
Amount of cereal can be increased to decrease gooeyness
More chocolate chips can be mixed in or sprinkled on top to increase chocolate flavors
Marshmallow is the dominant flavor in this recipe, so adjust ingredients as desired
Use wetted fingers or a butter wrapper to smooth out the top of the bars
Don't worry about getting the marshmallows totally melted on the stove, there is plenty of heat to keep melting later on
These bars freeze well
