Marshmallow Bars
There are lots of names for this old-fashioned dessert bar recipes. I call them Marshmallow Bars. You may call them Peanut Butter Marshmallow Bars or Butterscotch Bars. It doesn’t matter what you call them as they still have the same great taste!
This no-bake dessert is perfect when you need to whip up something quickly for a bake sale or unexpected company. They harden up in no time at all in the fridge and are ready to enjoy.
I taste the peanut butter more than the butterscotch in this recipe. I love the smooth, creamy consistency. So yummy!
This recipe has been passed down for many generations and is found in lots of different families, mine included. Have you tried Marshmallow Bars before?

These look absolutely delicious but I’m afraid that I don’t like peanut butter, I know I’m in the minority. Now caramel and we’re talking 🙂
Hi, It looks divine. I just printed the recipe and I was wondering what is the storage life? Can I make on Monday for Saturday party?
We’ve always eaten them within three days. I think if you kept them in the fridge you should be ok.
Could you add peanuts to that as well?
Sure! I think that would be yummy.
These bars seem so finger-licking! This is a pitch perfect treat, Stacie!
