Sorry for the LONG delay between posts! School started back and life has been crazy!! And now all the central TX fires are burning like crazy, and I can't sleep, so I guess I'll post an update...
Baking:
Not a whole lot of that has happened, but I hope I can get back on track!
Amee and I did make S'MORES right before school was back in.
This was a fun adventure! Somehow I got bit by a S'MORE bug and knew we just had to make some S'MORE cupcakes!
So we began with a graham cracker crust: graham cracker crumbs, butter and sugar
Then filled the cupcake with a simple chocolate cake recipe mix.
And Baked.
Now came our creative ideas on how to add the marshmallow... I do not own a kitchen fire gun, NOR did I see a safe outcome with going to the garage and firing up Christian's welding fire torch.. ;)
(oh and I only had BIG marshmallows and none of the whipped marshmallow cream that all the recipes called for.)
So here is what we did:
idea 1) add a marshmallow to cooked cupcake, secure with a toothpick and stick in microwave for about 15-30sec
I LOVE putting marshmallow's in the microwave because the get HUGE!! haha. The above picture does no justice, I think it had deflated some by the time I remembered to take a pic...
Idea 2) melt marshmallow in glass bowl and frost cupcake
This was SOOO sticky!! but worked out ok.
Idea 3) add marshmallow, secure with toothpick, place in broiler until toasted a golden brown
The color on these was beautiful, but they didn't fall down so we had to help it a bit.
Now lets add some more Chocolate to finish these treats off:)
We simply melted chocolate in the microwave and added a little to the tops, and on a few we sprinkled some graham cracker crumbs.
BEAUTIFUL!!!
LET'S EAT!! :)
OHHH MYY LANTA! SOOO GOOD!! yes sticky, but good:)
