Rocky Road Bars Recipe

I had a bag of mini marshmallows that I've been wanting to use up for a while, so I decided to make Rocky Road Bars!

They were very quick and easy to make!  And so yummy! 

I left the bars in the oven with the marshmallows a little too long, as they all melted, so next time I'll either put them back into the oven for just a minute, or maybe not at all, so the marshmallows retain some of their shape.
