Chocolate Confetti Bars
I think everyone has a recipe for Chocolate Confetti Bars, but may call it by a different name. This vintage recipe has been around a long time. I remember seeing it often at our local church bake sales. There’s a reason why it’s stood the test of time: they are easy to make and delicious!
I make mine with a mixture of butterscotch chips and chocolate chips plus a little bit of peanut butter. Coloured mini marshmallows add a pop of chewy sweetness and just look pretty. These no-bake bars are always a hit around Christmas and great if you are participating in a baking exchange.
Chocolate Confetti Bars
Sweet, silky and melt-in-your-mouth good. There’s a reason this vintage recipe has stood the test of time!
Ingredients:
- 1 – 300g package chocolate chips
- 1 – 300g package butterscotch chips
- 1 tbsp butter
- 2 tbsp peanut butter
- 1 – 250g bag mini coloured marshmallows
Directions:
- Melt chocolate chips, butterscotch chips, butter and peanut butter in a double boiler. Let cool about 10 to 15 minutes.
- Stir in marshmallows. Pour mixture into a 9×9 inch pan. Refrigerate until solidified. Cut into squares.
I love making them because they are SO EASY! On hot days, I don’t feel like baking elaborate desserts….ok I don’t like making elaborate desserts, period! They are silky, melt-in-your-mouth good.
I’d love to hear about your recipes. How do you make these simple bars?
love the addition of peanut butter!
The confettis look like mini ice cream pieces, lol. It looks great, and I never tried making chocolate bars with peanut butter (although we all love mixing those two together). Gonna save some time to prepare it over the weekend =)
These confetti bars are so cute and colorful. I have some red, white, and blue marshmallows that I think I will try this recipe with. Thank you for sharing at Happiness is Homemade link party. Shared and pinned.
I remember enjoying something that was sweet and pretty like this when I was a child!

Gotta love a no bake bar in the summer! So pretty – and who can resist chocolate?
I’ve had chocolate confetti bars, but had no idea what they were called – until now! Yours look so yummy. Love the pops of colour too – beautiful and delicious! As a lover of all things ‘no bake’, I’m gonna have to make my own 🙂 Thanks for the recipe!

Would salty party peanuts be good in these to cut down on the sweetness?
You could try! I bet they’d be good.
