This is SO easy and SO good.
If you forgot you were supposed to take office snacks or bake for a party and you had 10 minutes, you could actually do this.
This is where you don’t need to make any apologies for using a microwave to prepare something. It is the best thing to use here.
You can use a pot on the stove, but wait until it is cool enough before stirring in the marshmallows.
If you use the microwave, it will take about 30 seconds to heat.
I like soy nut butter and peanut butter, I like chocolate, I kind of like marshmallows, but all together, I don’t know if I should admit that this is a bit addictive.
I like the texture of these bars as is, but sometimes I add rice crisp cereal to lighten it up.
The rice crisps give it another texture layer.
Each time you make it you can see if you get faster.
