You want S'more?


Okay we all know that I have an addiction to marshmellows and since it is that time of year when we enjoy the puffy white balls of sugar with chocolate and graham crackers I thought I'd share these little tidbits with you all.
This first one I saw on a Paula Dean cooking show...I just love her. So you take a sheet of tin foil and lay it out. Place a full graham cracker down. Cover that with a chocolate bar, followed by several large mellows and top it off with another cracker. Wrap up the yummy goodness with your tin foil and throw it on the grill for a few minutes. Open it up and wha-la you have an ooey gooey dessert.
In my Family Fun magazine they gave a recipe for what they claim to be a less mess S'more. I haven't tried it yet but I think my kiddos will probably get just as messy regardless. So they suggest that you use a flour tortilla instead of graham crackers. Just wrap a handfull of chocolate chips and a handfull of mini-mellows in your tortilla and then wrap the tortilla in tin foil and put it on the grill. After it cools for a few minutes you can just tear away the top half of the foil and let them have at it.
We'll be enjoying both of these methods this summer...I hope you will too! Maybe we could try a taste test. Try both and let us know which you think is better!
Oh and if you have any fabulous ideas for a summer treat (especially if it includes chocolate, peanut butter or marshmellows) please share!!!
