Ingredients

2 cups of milk chocolate chips
1 cup of butter
4 cups of mini marshmallows
1 cup of graham cracker crumbs
1 can of sweetened condensed milk (14 oz)
1 cup of M&M’s (preferably red and green for a festive appearance)

Instructions

Prepare the Pan To make this recipe even simpler to unmold later on, begin by lining an 8×8-inch square baking dish with parchment paper, leaving an overhang along all four sides so it will be easier for unmolding of bars once set.
Make the Crust: For best results, melt butter at medium-low temperature in a pot, mixing in Graham cracker crumbs until they’re evenly covered by butter. Press this crumb mixture over the base of your pan to form an even crust and allow to set before placing back into the fridge for two to three minutes to set properly.
Melting Chocolate In a microwave-safe bowl, use 30-second increments to melt chocolate chips until smooth – this will serve as the base for your delicious chocolate layer!
Layer the Marshmallows For maximum flavor and success, layer a thin and fluffy marshmallow layer atop of the Graham Cracker crust. An even distribution will give you the ideal result!
Pour the Condensed Milk: Pour sweetened condensed milk evenly across each layer of marshmallow for bars that boast intense and gooey textures.
Pour the Chocolate Layer Then pour and evenly spread chocolate melt over the condensed milk and marshmallow layers, spreading it across every inch of surface area.
Now it’s time for some fun! Sprinkle M&Ms generously over the chocolate coating, pressing gently so they stick securely.
Refrigerate to Cool and Set: Place the pan into the fridge for at least 2 to 3 hours or until they have completely set. Using parchment paper that overhangs from your pan, lift out and form squared bars from them once firm.
Modify the Colors M&M’s Marshmallow Dream Bars When creating perfect M&M’s Marshmallow Dream Bars, use red and green M&Ms for any special event such as Easter, birthday parties or Halloween. Feel free to mix colors to suit various other events like these as well.
Add Crunch With Precrushed Pretzels or Salt You can give your bars extra crunch by mixing pre-crushed pretzels with regular pretzels or by scattering salt over their surface prior to chilling.

Storage

Bars should be stored in an airtight container at room temperature for at least a two week period before moving them into the fridge to extend shelf life.
