Sure that my kids will like this rainbow snack. Two ingredients of this snack are also available. But, at home, I only have tiny marshmallows. Can I do with them?
I think it’s easy enough to use small marshmallows – just add extras at the end to the contents don’t fall off of the stick.
And I’d appreciate it if you’d leave a recipe rating on the recipe card 🙂
