   • Gather 2 cups of butterscotch chips, 1 cup of margarine, 1 cup of peanut butter, and 2 1/2 cups of mini marshmallows.

2. Melt Butterscotch Chips and Fats:

   • In a microwave-safe bowl or on the stove, melt together the butterscotch chips, margarine, and peanut butter until smooth and well combined. Stir occasionally to ensure even melting.

3. Cool Slightly:

   • Allow the melted mixture to cool slightly. This step helps prevent the marshmallows from completely melting when added in the next step.

4. Combine with Marshmallows:

   • In a large mixing bowl, pour the melted mixture over the mini marshmallows. Stir gently until the marshmallows are evenly coated with the butterscotch-peanut butter mixture.

5. Transfer and Chill:

   • Pour the mixture into a greased 9×13 inch baking pan, spreading it out evenly with a spatula or back of a spoon.

6. Chill:

   • Place the pan in the refrigerator to chill for at least 1-2 hours, or until the slice is firm and set.

7. Slice and Serve:

   • Once chilled, remove the Polka Dot Slice from the pan and cut into squares or rectangles. Serve and enjoy these delightful treats!
