Ingredients
Instructions

Tips & Substitutions
For a richer flavor, consider using real butter instead of margarine. If you don't have graham cracker crumbs, digestive biscuits or crushed vanilla wafers can be good substitutes. Feel free to add a pinch of sea salt on top before baking for an extra layer of flavor. For a twist, add chopped nuts or peanut butter chips to the filling.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can I use gluten-free crescent rolls for this recipe?
Yes, you can substitute regular crescent rolls with gluten-free versions available in stores. Just ensure they are properly sealed and baked according to the package instructions for best results.
What can I do if I don't have miniature marshmallows?
If you don't have miniature marshmallows, you can cut regular-sized marshmallows into smaller pieces. Alternatively, you can use marshmallow fluff as a spread over the chocolate chips and graham crackers before baking.
How do I know when the bars are done baking?
The bars are done when they are golden brown on top and the chocolate is melted. Keep an eye on them towards the end of the baking time to prevent burning, as ovens can vary in temperature.
