Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1.5 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 2 tablespoons butter
- 3 cups mini marshmallows
- 1 cup chopped nuts (e.g., almonds, walnuts, or pecans)
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 pinch pinch of salt
Instructions
Line a large baking sheet with parchment or wax paper. Set aside.
In a medium saucepan over low heat, melt the semi-sweet chocolate chips and butter together. Stir constantly to avoid burning.
Once the chocolate mixture is smooth and fully melted, remove the saucepan from the heat.
Stir in the vanilla extract and a pinch of salt to enhance the flavor.
Allow the chocolate mixture to cool slightly for about 2-3 minutes to avoid melting the marshmallows.
Gently fold in the mini marshmallows and chopped nuts until they are evenly coated in the chocolate.
Using a spoon or small cookie scoop, drop spoonfuls of the mixture onto the prepared baking sheet, forming small mounds.
Refrigerate the chews for about 1 hour or until firm and set.
Once set, remove the Chocolate Nut Chews from the baking sheet and store them in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to a week.
Enjoy these delicious, chewy, and nutty treats as a perfect after-dinner dessert or snack!
