Ohhhh...these are so wonderful and yet so sinful. Rich..ooey...gooey. A few changes (although slight). I used butter instead of crisco and also mini-marshmellows. I didn't read the directions very carefully and so sprinkled the marshmellows on b/f baking and so my marshmellows are a bit more chewier than they're suppose to be. No worries...still MMMmmmm good!~ Made for HolidayTag.

I've enjoyed baking and cooking since I was a little girl. I wish I had more time in the kitchen, but I keep a busy pace here in NYC. I became a premium member Jan. 1, 2009 as holiday gift to myself in hopes of amalgamating my favorite recipes and discovering new ones all in one place!
