ReplyDeleteLooks like some gooey chocolate dessert. I love chocolate and marshmallows. Those are my favorites.
ReplyDeleteWhat a GREAT recipe, and the fact that you can make and freeze ahead of time makes it excellent. It looks delicious, we love this kind of treat.
ReplyDeleteyummy! i LOVE myself some marshmallow mixed with chocolate :)
ReplyDeleteBoy it even looks better in the picture than it did on my plate!
ReplyDeleteI hope other folks try tweaking the recipe with additions like cherries or peanut butter chips, white chocolate etc. I would love to try a lot of versions...but I found I enjoyed it way too much. Maybe I should adopt some teenage boys to consume experiments after I try just one slice!
I just made this and it was soo good! I probably should have frozen it longer, cause it was a little runny, but very tasty. And easy!
