Those Peanut Butter Marshmallowy things everyone remembers from being a kid...

That's right, a real live recipe for those peanut butter marshmallow squares. You won't believe how easy these are, which is probably why everyone used to bring them to barbecues and picnics and potlucks.

2/3 cup butter (real butter works best here people)
1 cup-ish peanut butter (I prefer smooth)
1 pkg butterscotch chips
1 pkg little colored marshmallows

Put your marshmallows in a baking tray first. There's some timing issues here. also like to use those disposable trays because then can take them to someone's house and they just get left there or thrown out when they're done.

Melt the butter in a medium-sized pot. I don't really measure out a cup of peanut butter: a big scoop usually works just fine. Melt and stir these together until smooth.












When those are all melted together, throw in the package of butterscotch chips. You have to keep these well-stirred - the little suckers tend to clump up and want to burn.

ps, like my action shot here?










When everything's melted all together, pour the mixture over your marshmallows.














Mix it all around. You'll probably want to put this in the freezer for about 1/2 hour (I always make this RIGHT BEFORE I have to be somewhere...) or the fridge for a bit would probably work too. Yum.
