Description
The perfect holiday treat made in just 10 minutes! These rich, chewy No Bake Chocolate Marshmallow Squares are loaded with creamy peanut butter, butterscotch, and mini marshmallows – an easy microwave dessert everyone will love.
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
Line a 9 x 13 inch baking pan with parchment paper, leaving some overhang to lift out later.
In a large microwave-safe bowl, combine chocolate chips, butterscotch chips, and peanut butter.
Microwave on medium power for 30 seconds. Stir and continue microwaving in 5–10 second intervals, stirring each time, until smooth.
Fold in mini marshmallows, ensuring they’re fully coated.
Pour mixture into prepared pan, smoothing out with a spatula to create an even layer.
Let cool and firm at room temperature for 2–3 hours (avoid refrigerating to prevent chocolate streaking).
Once firm, lift out using parchment overhang, cut into 1.5-inch squares, and store in the refrigerator.
Notes
Avoid using natural peanut butter, as the oils may separate and affect the texture.
Do not refrigerate to speed up cooling—this can cause white streaks due to milk solid separation.
Perfect for make-ahead holiday treats!
