Notes
- Store leftover treats in an airtight container at room temperature to keep them soft and chewy.
- For a melty, extra-gooey treat, microwave a square for about 5-10 seconds.
- Cut into fun shapes with cookie cutters for a festive and delicious presentation.
- Chef's secret: Gently pressing the mixture into the pan ensures a cohesive treat that won't crumble easily.
