Notes
**If you don’t have a torch to toast the marshmallows no problem. Hold on putting the marshmallows on the pie and freeze pie for 60 min., turn on broiler and place pie on cookie sheet. Arrange marshmallows on top. Broil till marshmallows are toasted, about 60 seconds, it happens fast so don’t walk or turn away! The marshmallows will be toasted on the outside but firm inside. If edges of chocolate pie filling got a little melty pop in the fridge for a few minutes.
**I feel that I need to tell you the marshmallows aren't that easy to cut through being sticky and all but they lift just enough off the pie that you can cut the pie under them and then tear, pull or cut the marshmallows to set onto each slice.
