I first had these colorful squares as a child at friend's house, but they weren't something my family ever made. I had them again as an adult and was convinced to make them for my own family when I found out how easy they are to make.

Simply melt butter, peanut butter, and butterscotch chips together and stir in some colorful marshmallows. Then wait for them to set, and you're good to go!

The texture of these squares is just like fudge studded with marshmallows, but with the unique flavor combination of butterscotch and peanut butter (and a little bit of fruitiness if the marshmallows you buy are fruit flavored). If you haven't had them, they might sound odd, but are surprisingly delicious and addictive!

Ingredients
  

  • ½ cup unsalted butter
  • 1 cup creamy peanut butter
  • ½ teaspoon kosher salt
  • 300 grams butterscotch chips (10 oz)
  • 200 grams rainbow mini marshmallows (7 oz) can substitute with white mini marshmallows, or use a combination

Instructions
 

  • Prepare a 9x13" baking pan by lining it with aluminum foil and greasing the foil. Fill a small saucepan with a small amount of water (1-2" deep). Place a glass or metal bowl over the pot, ensuring that the bottom of the bowl is not touching the water. Bring the water to a boil, then reduce the temperature to medium low so the water is just simmering.
  • Stir ½ cup unsalted butter, 1 cup creamy peanut butter, and ½ teaspoon kosher salt together in the bowl. Continue stirring until melted together. Add 300 grams butterscotch chips and stir until melted (If you don't have a pot and bowl that fit nicely together, use a microwave-safe bowl, and microwave in 30 second intervals, stirring after every interval until melted). Carefully remove the bowl from the pot and cool slightly (don't let it harden).
  • Stir 200 grams rainbow mini marshmallows into the butterscotch mixture (you may need to transfer to a larger bowl if your bowl was small). Transfer the mixture to the prepared baking pan and chill until set, about 30 minutes. Cut into small pieces and serve immediately or store in an airtight container or bag in the fridge or freezer.

    Just an fyi: switching out the butter for a dairy-free alternative won't make the recipe dairy-free because it's pretty much impossible to find dairy-free butterscotch chips.
