Time 1h2m

Yield 8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 3

2 cups marshmallow cream
1 cup chocolate chips, melted
1/4-1/2 lb dipping chocolate (or chocolate chips)

Steps:

  • Combine marshmallow cream and melted chocolate chips in a mixing bowl.
  • Gently fold until thoroughly incorporated.
  • Let stand, uncovered, for 15 minutes.
  • With your hands, form mixture into bars of desired size and place on cookie sheet lined with wax paper.
  • (If mixture is too sticky to handle, it needs more melted chocolate.) Melt dipping chocolate or remaining chocolate chips in microwave for about 2 minutes, stirring every thirty seconds to prevent scorching.
  • Dip bars into melted chocolate, and place back on cookie sheet.
  • Put in freezer for about 10 minutes, or until chocolate sets.
  • Variation: for Snickers bars, soften some caramels and flatten onto on bars before dipping in chocolate.
  • Press peanuts into caramel, then harden bars in freezer for 5 minutes.
  • Dip in chocolate according to the above instructions.

Tips:

  • Use fresh ingredients: Always use fresh ingredients for the best flavor and texture.
  • Don't overmix the batter: Overmixing the batter can make the bars tough.
  • Bake the bars until they are set: The bars should be set in the center but still have a slight jiggle to them.
  • Let the bars cool completely before cutting them: This will help to prevent them from crumbling.
  • Store the bars in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days: You can also freeze the bars for up to 2 months.

Conclusion:

These Milky Way copycat bars are a delicious and easy-to-make treat that are perfect for any occasion. They are sure to be a hit with your family and friends!
