Ingredients
Scale
- 2 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips
- ½ cup unsalted butter
- 1 can (14 oz) sweetened condensed milk
- 2 cups mini marshmallows
- 1 cup chopped nuts (pecans, walnuts, or peanuts)
Instructions
- In a saucepan, melt chocolate chips and butter over low heat, stirring constantly. Alternatively, microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring between each.
- Stir in sweetened condensed milk until fully blended.
- Remove from heat and let cool slightly to avoid melting the marshmallows.

- Slice into squares and serve chilled or at room temperature.

For nut-free options, use pretzels or crispy rice cereal. To avoid melted marshmallows, always cool the chocolate mixture slightly before folding them in.
