Expert Tips

Make cleaner cuts in bars with marshmallows by spraying the knife with cooking spray (over a paper towel or plate) or oiling before cutting.

Having a party? Make the shape more interesting by cutting into triangles.

These are always a hit. i make them with cupcake wrappers, and that way they are not so messy to transport to and from locations. Everyone wants the recipe and can't get over how easy they are.

The tast was great, but mine turned out extremely crumbly. I couldn''t take it to a pot luck because you needed a fork to eat because of the crumbs.
