I don’t usually post recipes on this here ol’ blog, because frankly I’m not really that awesome of a cook/chef/baker. I do rock at eating though, so that has to count for something.
While stuck in traffic one day last week, I was daydreaming about marshmallows (as I have been known to do). I had my par-DIY coming up and was thinking I should include some marshmallow-y goodness in my food offerings.
That’s where this easy peazy recipe was born and I even had the ingredients sitting my house just waiting for me to combine them. And yes, I’m sure there are 89,732 recipes on Pinterest that I could have used, but I was really trying to figure out the laziest recipe possible. Part of a lazy recipe is that I NOT go online and get sucked into Pinterest for 50 minutes.
What you need:
– Marshmallows (I used the giant kind, but any size will work)
– Chocolate chips
– Graham crackers
Step 1: Grab your supplies. Eat a couple marshmallows and a handful of chocolate chips just to make sure nothing went stale. I know the packages aren’t open but it’s good to be sure!
Step 2: Put some chocolate chips in a microwaveable container and heat it for a minute or so until mushy and easily mixable. Put a couple graham crackers in a baggy and squish the crap out of them until they’re just crumbs.
Step 3: Take a marshmallow and dip it in the chocolate. Then, do a little tap-tap-tap dance in the graham cracker crumbs.
Step 4: Put the finished marshmallows in the freezer for a few minutes to set the chocolate.
{sorry, I don’t have a picture of this because I may have been taste testing some of my messier s’more creations…}
Step 5: Put them on a pretty plate and take a bunch of pictures on Instagram to make everyone jealous and hungry.
That’s it, you’re done!
They were delicious and also kinda pretty to display at my party (um, par-DIY). When I asked for feedback the only recommendations were to USE MORE CHOCOLATE! So next time I’m going to cover the marshmallows halfway or even two-thirds of the way. I also might try using regular sized marshmallows, so that that you can just pop one in your mouth (rather than gingerly biting at it).
Anyway, if you get a sweet craving over the weekend check and see if you have these three ingredients sitting in your pantry and make yourself a little treat!
