Ingredients

• 0.5 cup unsalted butter
• 2 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips
• 0.5 cup smooth peanut butter
• 3 cups mini marshmallows
• 1 cup salted peanuts
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Directions

Step 1

Line an 8x8-inch baking dish with parchment paper, allowing the edges to overhang for easy removal later. Set aside.

Step 2

In a medium saucepan, melt the butter over low heat, stirring occasionally to prevent browning.

Step 3

Add the semi-sweet chocolate chips and peanut butter to the saucepan. Continue stirring over low heat until the mixture is completely melted and smooth.

Step 4

Remove the pan from heat and stir in the vanilla extract. Allow the chocolate mixture to cool for 2-3 minutes, but not so much that it starts to firm up.

Step 5

In a large mixing bowl, combine the mini marshmallows and salted peanuts.

Step 6

Pour the slightly cooled chocolate mixture over the marshmallows and peanuts. Gently fold the ingredients together with a spatula until everything is evenly coated.

Step 7

Transfer the mixture into the prepared baking dish and spread it evenly, pressing it down gently to ensure it sets firmly.

Step 8

Refrigerate the dish for at least 2 hours, or until the mixture is fully set.

Step 9

Once set, use the parchment paper overhang to lift the square block out of the pan. Cut into 16 squares with a sharp knife.

Step 10

Store the Marshmallow Peanut Chocolate Squares in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 1 week. Serve chilled or at room temperature.
