We all enjoyed making these! Some things to note…You could use Cocoa Krispies but do know you will not get the rich dark brown color as shown. This is because the marshmallows add a white glaze to them. You can also use melting wafers instead, but I was only able to find baking chocolate. I hope your family enjoys these as much as mine did!
