Halloween Marshmallow Bars

Gosh, I still remember the first time I whipped up these Halloween Marshmallow Bars—my kitchen looked like a candy corn explosion, and I was elbow-deep in gooey marshmallow before my coffee even cooled off.

A Saturday Morning Chocolate Rescue There I was, bleary-eyed at 7:30 AM, rummaging through the fridge for anything resembling breakfast—my poor coffee pot hadn’t kicked in yet. My two-year-old granddaughter waddles in, clutching her stuffed bunny and wearing pajamas splattered with who-knows-what (toddler life’s little mysteries!).

It was one of those chilly December mornings last year when I found myself in my grandma’s kitchen—well, her old kitchen in my head, anyway—wrapped in an oversize sweater and sipping lukewarm coffee while rummaging through her faded recipe cards.
