Six Amish Recipes With Marshmallows

Amish Marshmallow Pie

By Kevin Williams

Marshmallows are a sweet staple in Amish kitchens, especially around Christmas, when they find their way into fudges and cookies, and pies.  I'm not someone who particularly enjoys eating a marshmallow straight out of the bag.  There's just too little payoff to enduring chewing through the sweet, spongy, sticky glob.  But if you combine marshmallows with a cookie or a brownie, well, now you're talking!

EDITOR'S PICK - AMISH MARSHMALLOW PIE - This has become a holiday favorite in our household.  It is a beautiful pie and will satisfy,but not overpower, any sweet tooth! Click here for the recipe.

CHOCOLATE CHIP MARSHMALLOW BARS -  Okay, the photo is horrible, but the dessert really did taste awesome and if you cut them, put them on a pretty plate, etc, they'll look as good as they taste!  Click here for the recipe.

AMISH CHOCOLATE MARSHMALLOW COOKIES:  These really are some amazing cookies and I'd definitely encourage you to try them this December! Click here.
