Simple, to the point - and YUMMY.

A 12" dutch oven, 6 scouts, 2 leaders, and no leftovers. And considering how very RICH this was, I was pretty surprised.

Ingredients:
  • 3/4 cup margarine, softened
  • 3 cups graham cracker crumbs
  • 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
  • 1 cup caramel bits (or butterscotch chips)
  • 1 cup mini marshmallows
  • 1 (14 oz.) can sweetened condensed milk

Preparation:

Combine cracker crumbs and margarine and press into the bottom of a 12" DO.  Evenly sprinkle with chocolate chips, butterscotch chips and marshmallows.  Pour condensed milk over the top.  Bake at 350* for 25 minutes or until bubbly.  Use 14 coals on top and 10 on the bottom.  Cool somewhat before cutting.  Serves 12-15.

To be honest, I was not able to wait for complete cooling, nor did I want to - it was still warm as we dug in with a serving spoon. This was SOOOOOO rich, and the way the marshmallows were all swollen as if cooked in a microwave - except nicely browned - was very cool.

Leader tested, Scout approved.

Made this again a couple of weeks ago for my scouts. It is still a favorite of theirs.

I end up using closer to the full bag of chocolate chips and marshmallows - I just pour them on until there's a layer.

Ooey Gooey Yuminess...

For a 10-inch oven, because sometimes, a 12-inch oven just makes a little too much:

Ingredients:
  • 1/2 cup butter
  • 2 cups graham cracker crumbs
  • 2/3 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
  • 2/3 cup caramel bits (or butterscotch chips)
  • 2/3 cup mini marshmallows
  • 2/3 of a 14-oz can sweetened condensed milk

Prepare as directed above, using 8 briquettes bottom heat and 12 briquettes top heat.
