Submitted by malka margulies

"I have never made this recipe but it sounds good. I don't know how long the prep time is. If you make it let me know how it turns out. The secret ingredient is butterscotch chips. These melt in with the marshmallows and help create a more substantial square. Enjoy."

These are wonderful! The butterscotch chips are excellent in this. I only made 1/2 recipe because I only had 1 bag of marshmallows. I put them in an 8" square lightly greased pan. I lightly grease my hands with butter to press them into the pan. I will be making these again. Fabulous!
