Red food coloring

Directions:

• In a large saucepan, melt the butter on low heat. Slowly add the bag of marshmallows and stir until melted down all the way through. Remove from heat
• Add one or two drops of red food coloring to give the marshmallow a pinky color

• While the mix is still warm, mold small handfuls into heart shapes and place on waxed paper
• Let cool before eating
