BY JO MCCLURE

Any amount of chocolate or candy desired...could be milk chocolate chips, peanut butter chips, chopped peanut butter cups, chopped Hershey bars or even chopped Snickers.

Grease a 9x13 inch pan. Melt butter and add 1 1/2 cups marshmallows and stir until melted. Remove from heat and add the cereal and stir until well combined...then stir in the last 1/2 cup of marshmallows. Spread the mixture in the greased pan and top with your favorite chocolate.

Cut, serve and enjoy!

We Still Love It Here

When First Dakota National Bank opened its doors for business along the Missouri River in 1872, South Dakota wasn’t even “a thing,” as we like to say. Well, it wasn’t a true state yet, but it was a land of opportunity for many families, farmers, and other settlers in the region.

Today, one hundred fifty years later, First Dakota is still proud to be our state’s first bank. Our customers have shaped South Dakota into the remarkable place we call home. That’s why our 150th anniversary is a tribute to this great state and the people who make it so.

To help celebrate 150 years, we’re giving away several new Ford F-150s to outstanding community members.
