Notes

Mini marshmallows work best in this recipe, but you can use the regular-sized ones if that’s what you’ve got in your pantry.
Line your baking dish with parchment paper to make it easier to remove and cut the treats.
Keep the treats stored in an airtight container at room temperature for best results. They will keep for up to 3 days.
