Rocky Road Squares
These lil guys are sooo addictive LOL !! I put them in the freezer and eat them from there. They aren't too frozen to bite into at all. I love cold marshmallows. My mother wasn't a baker at all so not sure who she got this recipe from. I've been making it in these last 25 yrs that I've had the book (writing this August 2020) and they are an absolute fav. I've made them with all sorts of different chips, milk chocolate, white chocolate, butterscotch, a mixture of dark and white. I've also switched the peanuts up for almonds on occasion and cashews, I'm not a huge peanut fan. One of my favorites with this was macadamia nuts, white chocolate chips and I made multi-colored marshmallows. Play with these. They're super quick and really awesome.
