These are like rice krispie treats, only chocolate, and with nuts. They're a nice change, and simple & quick. I don't remember mom making them, but I had them growing up, probably at Girl Scout Meetings!
1 lb. Marshmallows
8 oz. Pkg. Chocolate chips
3T butter
½ tsp salt
1 tsp vanilla
6 C Rice Krispies
1 C walnut meats
Melt marshmallow, chocolate chips, butter in double boiler (greased)
Add rest of ingredients – spread in greased 8x12 pan and chill.
Cary’s notes:
I used peanuts instead of walnuts, and I forgot to grease the double boiler. You have to do a lot of stirring to get this mixture smooth. When it’s down to a few lumps, you can stir it to the point of smoothness – everything is all hot and melty at that point. And it didn't stick to my Calphalon pan, so no worries.
Also, I sprayed the 8x12 pan with Pam just to make sure they popped right out.
They were just a bit salty. (I used salted peanuts) And the combination of the dark chocolate and the salt was just delicious!

p.s. I made these to bring to my open house on Heather Lane today.
