ok WOW- let me say first off- these are labor intensive- and I would also like to point out my mixer broke the day I made these so I whisked the marshmellow by hand ( I will except condolences at any time thank you) lol but seriously- these are ah-may-zing. They're delicious. But ugly lol. Which really says something about the skill of the author of this recipe because hers came out lovely- clearly she knows what she's talking about and doing. You should listen to her, and do what she does- it leads to good things. Mine are crooked, uneven, globby messes of marshmellow, chocolate, and cracker (which I am making more of just the cracker today because everyone loved them.) but man oman are they yummy. I don't even care what they look like because they're gone before I have the time to dwell. Just the best home made goody I've made. They taste better than the store- and I mean that....not just saying it because it took me all day to make them. You should make them too. If you like delicious kinds of things :). awesome.

my condolences to your overworked hand, arm & shoulder muscles; must have great arms after that episode. after reading your review i'm looking forward to making these. the first attempt is usually not as pretty as those of the cook/author. practice makes perfect. even unattractive foods can taste fantastic despite the presentation.

haha Thank you!! My arm has recovered :) I know people say you eat with your eyes first....but I just closed them and let my mouth take over. The crackers were especially good :D I hope it goes easier for you!!!

Wow, whipping marshmallows by hand...I can't even imagine.... You're a trooper, Debbie!! I'm so glad you enjoyed them, even if they were a little messy. It's the sign of a true homemade treat! :)

Do you have any tips on how to thin the chocolate a bit without taking away it's ability to harden?? Do you think milk chocolate would be to sweet? Thanks for the awesome recipe- and thanks for commenting and reminding me it's time to make these again lol I got a new mixer though, so this time it will go quicker!!! :)

Can I use the Marshmallow part alone and coat them with the chocolate, and/or coconut, crushed nuts. Or, if I don't have the time, can I use plain tea crackers that are heated slightly in the oven and then proceed with the recipe.
Thank you for your attention to this matter.

I would like to know that answer, also. This sounds so intriguing I just may set aside a day and make them. my email [email protected]

Hi Janet, sorry for not replying sooner! (It seems I'm no longer receiving email notifications for comments on recipes.) Anyway, if you're still wondering, both of those modifications should work out just fine. If you'd like to coat the marshmallows in just coconut and/or crushed nuts, avoid coating them in too much of the sugar/cornstarch mixture beforehand if possible (the stickier they are, the better).
