  • 1 cup melted peanut butter
  • 1 cup M&M’s (your favorite variety)
  • 1 cup marshmallows

Directions:

Prepare the Pan:

  1. Line a 9×9 inch square baking pan with parchment paper, leaving some overhang for easy removal. Alternatively, use a springform pan for a different shape.

Melt White Chocolate and Peanut Butter:

Form Cookies or Bars:

Chill:

  1. Place the pan in the refrigerator, letting it chill for 2-3 hours, or until the mixture sets completely.

Cut and Serve:
