This delicious recipe for Marshmallow Chocolate Squares was given to my mom decades ago by her sister Lynne.
They used to make these squares around the Holidays but in all seriousness, you could make these anytime you are in the mood for a Chocolate and Peanut Butter Treat!
If you look at the list of ingredients and directions, you will see that these are super easy to make. The longest part of making these squares is letting them chill in the fridge for a few hours.
If you plan this recipe properly, you can make it later in the day and let the baking dish sit in the fridge overnight.
My Aunt Lynne also shared this excellent recipe for Bits & Pieces with me. Her Bits & Pieces (Trail Mix) is perfect for snacking on or to take with you on your next road trip.
The next time I make these squares I think I might add some crushed peanuts for a little texture. Just remember that if you are anyone eating these squares has a nut allergy you may want to check out some of my other Sweet Dessert Recipes.
