In a medium saucepan, combine the marshmallows, milk, and unsalted butter.
Place the saucepan over medium-low heat and stir constantly to avoid burning or sticking.
As the marshmallows melt, the mixture will turn smooth and creamy. Continue stirring for about 4-5 minutes until fully melted.
Remove the saucepan from heat and immediately stir in the vanilla extract and a pinch of salt.
Allow the marshmallow sauce to cool slightly before using. It will thicken as it cools.
Drizzle over desserts, ice cream, or use as a dip for fruits. Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to one week. Reheat gently before serving.
