Notes

RECIPE NOTES & TIPS
  • Peanut Butter - store-bought peanut butter works better in this recipe than homemade or natural peanut butter.
  • Melting - you can melt the ingredients in the microwave, on the stove-top or in a Thermomix
  • Don't add the marshmallows to the hot chocolate butter mixture - otherwise they will melt and you'll end up with a sticky mess! Allow it to cool before adding mini marshmallows.
  • Setting time - leave in the fridge to set for a minimum of 1 hour.
  • Cutting the slice - remove from the fridge 30 minutes before you want to cut the slice. Use a sharp knife to cut the room temperature slice. See my post for more tips to cut perfect slices.
  • Storing - store in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 1 week.
  • Freeze -  wrap well and freeze for up to 1 month. Defrost in the fridge overnight.
