Indoor S'mores
By Sydnee Brashears
When I was younger, my favorite foods always involved fire- grilled chicken, hot dogs, and of course, s’mores. Given that you can’t typically set fire inside a house, these treats were understandably rare, and only in the summertime and the eve of fall. As I’ve gotten older, and my opportunity to roast marshmallows slims, I find myself longing for the comfort of an oozing sugary treat. For those of you who feel the same and want some more s’mores in your life, there is a solution. These delectable little desserts taste just like a summer evening, and will light up your mouth like a firefly. Best part of all? They’re easy as pie to make.
Ingredients
(12 s’more pies)
2 cans of frozen crescent rolls
2-3 milk chocolate bars (Hershey’s™ works the best)
1 bag of small marshmallows*
1 butter stick
(optional; to slather baking pan or iron skillet)
*regular size can be used as a substitute, but be sure to compensate by acquiring more crescent rolls.
Directions
• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Lay out the crescent rolls so they’re not so frozen when you start working with them, as they need to be soft and malleable.
• Take out a baking pan and cover it with parchment paper, or slather it with a liberal amount of cooking spray or butter/margarine. This dessert is very sticky.
• Take out your marshmallows, chocolate, and (not-so-frozen) crescent rolls. Break off a piece of crescent roll, place one (1) square of chocolate, and two (2) tiny marshmallows. Swaddle them in crescent roll. Repeat until you run out of crescent rolls. (it’s always crescent rolls.)
• Place them on the baking sheet, then in the oven for 15 minutes or until golden.
• Let them cool a bit (typically 2-5 minutes) before removing them from the pan and onto a cooling tray.
• Serve them while warm. Like regular pies, they’re best when they burn the tongue.
May you and yours enjoy the Indoor S’mores!
