Place a heat proof bowl over 1 inch simmering water or use a double boiler. Pour chocolate chips into the bowl, add shortening. Melt, stirring occasionally until completely smooth.( Alternatively, melt chocolate and shortening together in a microwave safe bowl, using the melt function on your microwave. Stir until smooth.)
Meanwhile, line a large baking sheet with waxed paper or a silicone baking mat. Spread 4 1/2 cups cereal and marshmallows on pan. Crush remaining 1/2 cup cereal and set aside.
Drizzle melted chocolate over cereal and marshmallows. Spread using an offset spatula until evenly distributed. Sprinkle with crushed cereal.
Chill for 1-2 hours. Break apart and enjoy.
Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 1 week.

Chocolate – I use milk chocolate for this recipe, but you can use semi-sweet chocolate chips or dark chocolate chips, if that’s your preference. You could also drizzle melted peanut butter chips or white chocolate chips on top of the milk chocolate.
Candy – You could sprinkle the top of the s’mores candy bark with colorful sprinkles, toffee bits, chopped peanut butter cups or your favorite nuts.
Spread the Cereal Evenly – When spreading the cereal on the pan, do your best to spread it evenly so that the chocolate will be able to reach to, and cling to all of the ingredients.
Spread the Chocolate While Warm – When drizzling the melted chocolate over the marshmallows, do your best to cover most of the ingredients then take an offset spatula or spoon to gently spread it into the nooks and crannies. Every single piece of cereal won’t be covered, that’s part of what makes the flavor of this candy bark so delicious.
