Ingredients

  • 2 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips
  • 2 cups butterscotch baking chips
  • 1 cup creamy peanut butter (do not use natural peanut butter)
  • 4 cups mini marshmallows

Instructions

  • Prepare a 9 x 13 inch baking pan by lining it well with parchment paper. Fold the parchment paper so that it fits snugly in the pan. Allow the excess parchment paper to hang out over the side of the pan. Once the chocolate is firm, use the excess parchment to lift the whole block out of the pan to make it easy to cut into slices.
  • Next, add the chocolate chips, butterscotch chips, and peanut butter to a large microwave-safe bowl. Microwave on medium power for 30 seconds, stir, and microwave again in increments of 5 or 10 seconds, stirring with a rubber spatula after each increment, until the mixture is silky smooth.
  • Add in the mini marshmallows and use a rubber spatula to fold them in until each marshmallow is well coated.
  • Next, pour the mixture into the prepared pan. Use the spatula to gently push the mixture into the corners and to flatten it so that the entire pan has a level layer of chocolate and marshmallow mixture.
  • Allow the chocolate to firm up at room temperature. If you refrigerate it to speed up the re-hardening of the chocolate, you run the risk of separating the milk solids. That will result in a chocolate with white streaks through it. It’s best to let it sit at room temperature for two or three hours. The chocolate will slowly cool down and the milk solids will not separate.
  • Once completely chilled and firm, use excess parchment paper to lift the whole lot out of the pan. Place on a cutting board and use a sharp knife to cut into 1.5 inch squares.
  • Pile into food safe container and store in refrigerator.
