Top 8 Allergy-Free Dessert | Nut-Free Dessert | Rocky Road Bars
Ingredients
- 5 cups of mini marshmallows * I used Kraft brand
- 1/4 cup coconut oil*
- 3/4 cup WowButter (if soy is ok for your family OR use Sunbutter for a top 8 allergy-free option)
- 2 cups semi-sweet, allergy-safe chocolate chips (Enjoy Life brand are dairy-free, nut-free and make a top 8 allergy-free dessert).
Instructions
- Grease a 9 x 9" pan with oil on a paper towel. Line with parchment paper.
- Melt coconut oil, Wowbutter (or Sunbutter), and chocolate in a medium saucepan over medium-low heat (watch carefully so it doesn't burn). Stir continuously while melting.
- Take it off the heat.
- Add marshmallows and stir well until they are completely coated in chocolate.
- Pour the mixture into the baking dish and push the mixture into the corners of the pan.
- Chill in the fridge for about 2-3 hours before cutting into bars.
- Enjoy! Store in an air-tight container in the fridge or freezer until right before serving.
Notes:
- If your child has nut allergies, check with your Allergist to see if coconut oil is safe for your child.
- If you like to have more of a "rocky road" texture, use crunchy versions of Wowbutter or Sunbutter. If you like smooth and silky texture, use the smooth versions.
