FAQ:
Q: Can I use natural peanut butter instead of peanut butter chips?
A: No, peanut butter chips provide the structure and sweetness needed for this recipe. Natural peanut butter may be too oily and won’t set properly.
Q: Can I make this recipe nut-free?
A: This specific version centers on peanuts. For a nut-free version, try using sunflower seed butter chips and roasted sunflower seeds.
Q: Why aren’t the marshmallows melting smoothly?
A: Make sure to melt everything over low heat and stir constantly. If overheated, marshmallows can harden or clump.
Q: Can I double the recipe?
A: Yes, but use a larger pan or divide into two pans for even setting.
Q: How long do they take to set?
A: About 2 hours at room temperature or 30–60 minutes in the refrigerator.
