Golden Grahams S'more Bars

Childhood memories......*Sigh*
 
Golden Grahams cereal was my absolute favorite breakfast, lunch, dinner, and everything in-between snack when I was a kid.
 
 
I think I even saved up enough UPC labels to get the free (plus $4.99 shipping & handling) t-shirt.  What a glorious day this would be if I could find an old pic of my proud self wearing said t-shirt.
 
This is why I cannot fathom the fact that I never, ever, made or even tasted a S'more bar made with these squares of golden goodness. 
 
 
Until last night.
 
Oh my jeeeez.
 
 I even found proof that this recipe existed back in my 1980's hay-day:
 
Check out this video I found:
