Chocolate Chip Marshmallow Bars

A pan of Amish chocolate marshmallow brownies

By Kevin  Williams

I'm always looking for an easy, quick dessert to make.  Aster enjoys watching baking and cooking and enjoys helping to stir batter.  The "angel bars" I made the other night didn't turn out well, but I fared better last night with these "Chocolate Chip Marshmallow Bars."  Yum

This recipe comes to us from Ruth Knepp an Amish cook in Chouteau, Oklahoma.  SIGH, it was a delicious bar, but had I realized we had a package of mini-marshmallows in our pantry (I looked but didn't see any, but I didn't look in the right spot) they would have been better.  We did have a package of "jumbo marshmallows" with two in it, so I just shredded those up and they did the job, but it would have been better with more marshmallows.

So, for an easy, quick dessert, a classic "stir and bake" bar recipe, try this!
