How to Make Butterscotch Confetti Squares

Line two 9x9 inch baking pans with parchment paper, leaving an overhang on the sides to lift the finished squares out easily.
In a large, microwave-safe bowl, combine 1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted margarine and 1 cup creamy peanut butter.
Microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring after each, until completely melted and smooth (about 1-2 minutes total). Avoid overheating.
Remove from microwave and immediately stir in 2 cups butterscotch chips until melted and combined.
Let the mixture cool slightly for 1-2 minutes.
Add 2 (10-ounce) bags of mini marshmallows and stir gently until all marshmallows are coated and the mixture is well combined.
Pour the mixture evenly into the two prepared 9x9 inch pans. For extra-thick squares, use only one pan.
Refrigerate for at least 2-3 hours, or until completely set.
Once set, lift the squares from the pans using the parchment paper overhang. Cut into squares and enjoy!
