In large microwavable bowl, microwave remaining 4 1/2 cups marshmallows, the chocolate chips, butter, sugar and water uncovered on High 2 minutes to 3 minutes 30 seconds, stirring after every minute, until melted and smooth when stirred. Stir in vanilla. Continue as directed in recipe.
- If you spray your bowl with cooking spray before using it, you'll have less mess to clean when you're done.
- The sugar and water can be replaced with 1/4 cup corn syrup.
- If you prefer your marshmallows more visible in the bars, just a wait a minute or two after mixing the warm chocolate and marshmallow mixture into the cereal to allow it to cool slightly before you stir in the final cup of marshmallows.
