Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup Unsalted butter
- 1 cup Brown sugar
- 2 teaspoons Vanilla extract
- 2 cups All-purpose flour
- 0.5 teaspoons Salt
- 4 cups Mini marshmallows
- 1.5 cups Semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 1 can (14 ounces) Sweetened condensed milk
- 2 tablespoons Unsalted butter (for topping)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9x13-inch baking pan or line it with parchment paper.
In a large mixing bowl, cream together the unsalted butter and brown sugar until light and fluffy.
Add the vanilla extract, and mix to combine.
Gradually add the all-purpose flour and salt to the butter mixture, mixing until a crumbly dough forms.
Press the dough evenly into the bottom of the prepared baking pan.
Bake the crust for 12-15 minutes or until it is lightly golden.
Remove the pan from the oven and immediately sprinkle the mini marshmallows over the hot crust, covering it completely.
Return the pan to the oven for an additional 2-3 minutes, or until the marshmallows are just beginning to puff. Remove from the oven and set aside.
In a medium saucepan over low heat, combine the semi-sweet chocolate chips, sweetened condensed milk, and 2 tablespoons of butter. Stir constantly until the chocolate is fully melted and the mixture is smooth.
Pour the chocolate mixture evenly over the marshmallow layer, spreading gently with a spatula to ensure even coverage.
Let the bars cool at room temperature for about 1 hour, then transfer them to the refrigerator to chill for at least 2 hours or until fully set.
Once chilled, cut into squares or bars and serve. Store leftover bars in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to one week.
