I made this Vegan Chocolate Marshmallow Bars for my mom’s birthday last month. The marshmallow made it gooey over fudgy chocolate, and my coworker loved them.

- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1 1/2 cups vegan marshmallows

I store the bars in an airtight container at room temperature for up to four days. The stay gooey, and I let them come to room temperature before serving.
