Twinkle's delicious-looking snack from earlier today reminded me of this treat I used to make a lot. So, when we were at the store, I got the goods and whipped up a batch after dinner. Best of all, this utilizes the microwave and the fridge - nothing more.

What you'll need:

2 cups small marshmallows
1 cup chow mein noodles
1 11.5 oz. bag Nestle milk chocolate morsels
2 tablespoons smooth peanut butter

I use extra marshmallows and extra peanut butter, because I really love both. Also, don't scoff at the chow mein noodles - this treat really is tasty. You can sub Nestle's butterscotch morsels for another interesting taste.

Gather your stuff. Salmonella-contaminated peanut butter gets bonus points.

Combine morsels and peanut butter in a bowl, and nuke it for three minutes on 50% power.

While that's melting, measure out your chunky bits.

When the microwave beeps, the morsels will still have some shape, but they'll be good and mushy. Stir the chocolate and the peanut butter into one smooth blend.

Add your chunky bits.

Mix it all up until the chunky bits are good and covered in the chocolate/peanut butter.

Using a large spoon, dole out equal lumps onto a cookie sheet covered in foil.

Slide 'em into the fridge for about an hour.

When they're cooled, they'll easily peel off the foil. I put them in a Ziploc and store them in the fridge. A batch this size usually lasts about two days in our house. :piggies:
