Rocky Road Bars

 These bars are one of the best desserts I have ever had!  Seriously.  They are everything I dream about.  Chocolate, cream cheese, marshmallows and frosting.  We were first introduced to these dreamy bars at Nat's wedding reception in Utah.  Dave's aunt made them.  I won't mention how many I ate that night or how I thought about them for weeks after that.  All I knew was that I needed the recipe ASAP.  These would be perfect for Valentine's.  Or any occasion.  Or no occasion.  Just make them.  Pretty sure you will dream about them too!
