About Me I live in Hyogo, Japan, with my eldest son, a high school senior, and my youngest, who loves white rice and sweets. Life is busy, but sitting down at the table together is one of our little everyday joys. I cook with the mindset of “one dish made with all my heart” rather than focusing on the number of dishes, making sure my boys are always satisfied with their meals. My Motto: Easy recipes you’ll want to make again and again I share dishes that are hearty and filling, perfect for growing kids and hungry men. They may be quick and simple, but I make sure they never look like shortcuts. I love incorporating my own tips and tricks to achieve that balance. If my recipes can make life a little easier for busy people, that would make me so happy. Instagram I have 410,000 followers, and I often share glimpses of my everyday life in Stories—please stop by and take a look!

Tips & Notes

・If using mega-sized or mini marshmallows, adjust the heating time. Be careful not to overheat the marshmallows until they melt too much, as it will make them difficult to handle; heat only until they lose their shape slightly.
・For those who prefer a sweeter taste or for small children, making this with milk chocolate is recommended.
・I cut the silicone mold into individual sections to make it easier to use.
