Ingredients
  

For the Base
  • 1/2 cup Butter Consider using unsalted for better sweetness control.
  • 4 cups Mini Marshmallows Essential for that signature Rice Krispie treat texture.
  • 5 cups Caramel Crunch Cereal Adds a unique caramel flavor.
For the Samoa Layer
  • 14 ounces Caramels Choose high-quality caramels for the best richness.
  • 1/4 cup Heavy Whipping Cream Enhances the caramel’s creaminess.
For Topping
  • 2 cups Coconut Toasted to intensify flavor.
  • 1 cup Milk Chocolate Chips Feel free to swap for dark chocolate for a richer taste.

Equipment

  • Saucepan
  • Baking Sheet
  • 9x13-inch pan
  • Microwave-safe bowl

Method
 

Directions
  1. In a large saucepan over medium heat, melt your butter until it's bubbly and fragrant.
  2. Add the mini marshmallows to the melted butter, stirring continuously until everything is completely melted and smooth, about 2-3 minutes.
  3. Quickly incorporate the Caramel Crunch cereal, stirring gently until every piece is well coated with the marshmallow mixture.
  4. Spoon the mixture into a greased 9x13-inch pan. Press down firmly to create an even layer.
  5. In another saucepan, melt the caramels and heavy whipping cream over medium heat, stirring until smooth, around 5-7 minutes.
  6. Spread the coconut on a baking sheet and toast for about 10 minutes, stirring regularly.
  7. Stir the toasted coconut into the melted caramel and pour this mixture over the pressed Rice Krispie layer, spreading it evenly.
  8. Melt the chocolate chips in a microwave-safe bowl, stirring until smooth.
  9. Allow the bars to cool slightly, then dip the bottom of each in the melted chocolate and drizzle any remaining chocolate on top.
