Notes

You can use a mixture of full sized and mini marshmallows, if you like. You'd need a 10 ounce bag of full sized marshmallows and then 2 cups of mini marshmallows for stirring in towards the end. We prefer to use mini marshmallows vs. full sized when adding them in step 3. If you only have full size, you'll want to cut them into small pieces before adding them in step 3.
