Ingredient Substitutions

For those who are dairy intolerant, you can replace the butter with a dairy-free alternative like margarine or refined coconut oil.
Tips for a Successful Recipe
- Remember to stir the marshmallows continuously while melting to prevent them from burning.
- Press the mixture into the pan evenly to ensure uniform thickness of the treats.
- Allow the treats to cool completely before cutting to get neat, square pieces.
Troubleshooting
If your marshmallow mixture hardens too quickly, try placing the mixture over low heat and stir until it softens. In the case where your treats don’t set properly, it might be because the mixture wasn’t pressed firmly enough into the pan, or they might need more time to cool and set.
Storage Instructions
Store these treats in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 7 days. If you want to enjoy them later, you can freeze them for up to 6 weeks. When you’re ready to serve, thaw at room temperature.
