We've been experimenting with s'mores. A couple weeks ago we picked up some gourmet s'mores from The S'more Bakery on Etsy, and also some gourmet marshmallows from Wondermade (including both Guiness and bourbon marshmallows). The gourmet marshmallows all taste delicious, but are useless for proper roasting. They go from fine to a sticky puddle in seconds. Good ol' Jet Puffed are the best for roasting, for sure (yay, chemicals!).
We've tried using Rolos inside marshmallows (yum, but messy) and then we tried putting the Rolo on a graham cracker and putting the roasted marshmallow right on top to slightly melt the Rolo before eating (that works pretty well). We thought adding salt to the equation would be good, so last night we tried Saltines, for what we ended up calling The Full White Trash S'mores Experience: Saltines, Rolos, and Jet Puffed Marshmallows. š
Pretty good, but needs a bit more salty to go with the super sweet sweetness of a marshmallow AND a Rolo.
What are your favorite s'mores (besides the classic version…which we also did last night too)?
Hope you all had a happy 4th of July!
Rolos are my absolute favorite candy in the whole wide world!! But to answer your question about s’mores: when a campfire is not readily available, or when the weather isn’t cooperating, I like to smear Nutella on one graham cracker and marshmellow creme on another. Smoosh ’em together, and you have instant s’mores!
OMG! I love Rolos (& Emma loves them too). I remember many late nights when I was in my late teens – early twenties (read between lines here) eating Rolos sandwiched between Nabisco saltines by the sleeve full!!! Never thought it needed marshmallows though.
Lemon meringue on graham with marshmallow!
Yes…we got there from the other side: the marshmallows with a Rolo inside needed the Saltine! š
Great idea, Denise!
Yum!
