Recipe Tips

Be sure to use a large saucepan when melting the marshmallows to prevent them from overflowing. You can also use a non-stick cooking spray instead of parchment paper to line the baking dish. And if you don't have a microwave, you can also melt the chocolate chips in a double boiler over low heat. Finally, be sure to let the chocolate set completely before cutting into squares to prevent it from smudging.
