I would make these at my grandmother Caroline's when she was living in Tryon, NC. Ryan was a baby. I would drive down to the Piggley Wiggley in her gold Grand Prix to get the ingredients.

Her recipe used a bag of chocolate chips and no marshmallows.

No microwaves then, so stove top was our only option. Speaking of microwaves, I got my first one from Montgomery Wards when I was in nursing school. It was huge and heavy and expensive. I worked in the camera dept during one Christmas season while in nursing school. I knew nothing about cameras, but I was v pretty and my application went to the top of the pile. Ha!
