Tips for Making Yum-Yum Marshmallow Bars
- Use fresh ingredients. This will ensure that your bars are as delicious as possible.
- Make sure your marshmallows are soft and fluffy. If they're too hard, they won't melt properly and your bars will be too dense.
- Don't overcook the bars. They should be set but still slightly gooey in the center.
- Let the bars cool completely before cutting them. This will help them hold their shape.
- Store the bars in an airtight container at room temperature. They will keep for up to 3 days.
