Oh, how I’ve missed these chewy, crunchy, chocolatey treats. I’m so glad I found this recipe!! Actually, I probably won’t be able to make it again until after I complete the half marathon my friend signed me up for but until then, you can enjoy it. Just don’t rub it in my face – k? 🙂

INGREDIENTS

1 cup Chopped Pecans
2-3 cups Marshmallows*
1 cup Rice Krispies
1 cup Dried Cherries
1 1/2 bags of Milk Chocolate Chips
4 oz Semi-sweet Chocolate
Sprinkles (optional)

*If you choose the mini marshmallows you won’t need to chop them. If you have the larger marshmallows, you’ll need to chop them into quarters.

If needed, chop all the marshmallows and place them into a bowl. Add the pecans, cherries, and rice krispies.

Melt all the chocolate together in a bowl, either in the microwave or on stove top. If you choose to use the microwave, heat it for 1 minute, then stir, then heat it for 30 second intervals, stirring in between until completely melted. If you over heat it, add a few more chocolate chips and mix it around. It should help the chocolate become smooth again.

Pour the chocolate all over the marshmallow mixture and stir until completely covered. Grease an 8×8 glass dish, or baking dish and scoop the mixture into the bowl. Press down until it has evenly covered the dish. If you’d like, you can add sprinkles on top before the chocolate hardens. Place the dish into the refrigerator until completely hardened.

Slice into squares and enjoy. It is best to keep this in the fridge until enjoying it to avoid the chocolate softening.
