Caramel Corn Treats

Sep 11, 2017

Caramel Corn Treats are the perfect sweet and salty fall snack! Caramel corn, pretzels, cheddar Goldfish, and candy corn all coated in melted marshmallow! You won’t be able to stop snacking on these!

Hi guys, happy Monday!

I hope anyone in the path of Irma is doing okay today.

I spent my weekend watching the CNN coverage and screaming “GET CHRIS CUOMO OUT OF THE STREET!” at the TV because he was just standing there getting battered by rain and wind and he is too hot to be doing such a thing.

Not much else going on around here this weekend. It’s too cold to go to the lake but still a bit too hot for hiking after, like, 9 am.

So yeah, hurricane coverage, football, and chicken wings were my entire weekend.

Peanut Butter Bacon S’mores Crispy Treats

Aug 09, 2017

Peanut Butter Bacon S’mores Crispy Treats are the perfect mix of sweet and salty! A yummy mix of crispy rice cereal and golden grahams are coated in peanut butter and melted marshmallows and then tossed with crispy bacon and chocolate chunks.

Okay.

I know.

There’s a lot going on in these.

I was just going to do a regular s’mores rice krispies treat but add bacon for the sweet and salty but I love peanut butter with bacon and once that idea popped in my head, it was all I could think about.

Are we ready for me to be obsessed with s’mores?!

I’m ready. I’ve got a cabinet full of marshmallow and all different kinds of chocolate.

S’mores Granola

Aug 12, 2016

Last day of S’mores Week!

I’m sad. Are you sad?

Don’t worry, Nicole and I have something very exciting coming up soon! Really soon.

Like, this weekend if we get our you-know-what together in time.

Spoiler: it involves me having an awkward conversation with a Target cashier at 9 pm last night about why I needed so many marshmallows and a jar of caramel sauce.

Homemade Sprinkle Marshmallows

Aug 11, 2016

Homemade Sprinkle Marshmallows – easy homemade marshmallow recipe. Only 6 ingredients and so fun for s’mores or hot chocolate!

Okay, so this isn’t technically s’mores but how fun are s’mores made with sprinkle marshmallows?!

I’m obsessed.

But first, we haven’t talked Olympics.

Are you into it?

I really only care about the opening ceremony and gymnastics.

I was such a mess during the opening ceremony. I happy cried through most of it and I can’t even explain it. Every time they introduced a new country, I squealed, “Aww!” and started crying.

My kids left the room after the first 2 countries. No idea why.

Peanut Butter S’mores Dip

Aug 09, 2016

Peanut Butter S’mores Dip – the most delicious dessert dip! Peanut butter with chocolate and marshmallows! Serve with graham crackers for the ultimate s’mores experience!

Day 2 of #SmoresWeek!

This is kind of torturous for me because I decided to go paleo on Saturday or Sunday or somewhere around there. I can’t remember, my brain is not functioning correctly due to lack of pizza and sushi.

I’m not doing it longterm.

Also, not really paleo because I still put large amounts of splenda in my coffee and drink 15 Diet Pepsis a day.

But, foodwise… paleo.

It’s been…

Uggghhhh.

I just want a warm chocolate chip cookie.

That’s it. Just one cookie.

To distract myself, I’ve been binge-watching Wentworth. Have you seen it? It’s like Orange is the New Black but without the funny parts and I was bawling halfway through the first episode. It’s intense.

S’mores Poke Cake

O. M. G.

Y’all. It’s s’mores week!

S’MORES WEEK!

This is the 3rd year that Nicole and I have done this and if you didn’t know, National S’mores Day is Wednesday (August 10) so get your booty to the grocery store for all the supplies you need.

And if actual s’mores bore you, Nicole and I have 10 fun s’mores treats planned for the week!

TEN! So many s’mores!

(We probably should have gone for matching s’mores tattoos instead of pineapples, huh?)

Peanut Butter Bacon S’mores

Aug 14, 2015

Last day of S’mores Week!

It has to include bacon. Because duh. Why wouldn’t I combine my two favorite foods ever?

I’m having this weird thing with flavored bacon right now. I’ve always been kind of a purist when it comes to bacon. I would only buy the plain, center cut bacon. But then I discovered honey bourbon bacon and my life hasn’t been the same since.

If you can find it (I’ve only seen it at Walmart but I live in Tiny City, TX so it may be in other stores – it’s by Wright Brand), I highly suggest using it for these s’mores. I mean, honey. And bourbon. Bacon. On s’mores.

If you can’t find it, maple bacon works too! Or just use regular bacon! Bacon is bacon and bacon is good.

Okay, so under the bacon is a Reeses peanut butter cup. S’mores made with peanut butter cups are THE BEST.

You should totally make these. Make them on your stove after your kids are in bed so you don’t have to share. I won’t judge you.

Nicole made Chocolately S’mores Ice Cream and it looks amazing! I would love a big bowl!

I hope you enjoyed S’mores Week! I know I did! I also know that my jeans are now a tiny bit tighter than they were last week.

Worth it.

S’mores Muddy Buddies

Aug 11, 2015

Day 2 of S’mores Week!

Okay guys, are they Muddy Buddies? Are they Puppy Chow? I always knew them as Puppy Chow but the first time I said, “WE SHOULD MAKE PUPPY CHOW!” to my husband, he looked at me like I was nuts.

So we’re calling them S’mores Muddy Buddies.

Anyway, I’ve successfully made it through all of season 1 and half of season 2 of Pretty Little Liars since last… umm… Thursday? I can’t even explain what’s happening to my brain. I’ve already seen every episode at least once.

Why am I randomly obsessed with a show about teenagers?

Tell me I’m not alone. Anyone else marathoning it in preparation of tonight’s season finale? Or mideason finale? Or whatever they call it? I am dying to know if we’ll actually find out anything important. My hopes aren’t high. This is PLL we’re talking about.

Back to the Muddy Buddies!

Instead of the usual Chex, this recipe calls for Golden Grahams and then you melt marshmallows into the chocolate mixture. And then you add extra marshmallows!

I thought for sure I’d be able to resist it since I’m not a huge chocolate fan but I couldn’t stop myself from going back for more. Over and over again.

Nicole made S’mores Chocolate Chip Cookies and I’m totally making them to scarf down while I continue watching Pretty Little Liars today!

S’mores Pancakes

Aug 10, 2015

HAPPY MONDAY!

And yes, it is a happy Monday because it’s the start of S’mores Week!

Nicole and I did a s’mores week a couple years ago and decided to do it again. Because you can never have enough s’mores in your life!

Let’s start the week with pancakes!

Guys. These are seriously the first pancakes I’ve made in years. Years. I had the world’s worst stove in Colorado so pancakes would either be pale and raw in the center or completely black.

I can make pancakes again!

And these S’mores Pancakes are killer!

Regular pancakes (I used Bisquick because I love Bisquick but you can use any mix you like or a homemade batter) with graham cracker crumbs sprinkled on top while cooking. And then you spread marshmallow creme over the warm pancake and sprinkle chocolate on top of that and then you top it off with another pancakes.

Maple syrup not required!

Nicole made S’mores Rice Krispie Treats! Make sure you stop by and check those out. They’re the perfect treat for this stupid hot weather we’re having since you don’t have to turn the oven on!

S’mores Nachos

Mar 06, 2015

When we roadtripped to Alabama over my husband’s Christmas leave (#clemgoestoalabama if you want to look it up on Instagram), we ended around a bonfire at my sister-in-law’s house one night. It was sprinkling and cold but we stuck it out. And then, of course, as soon as we pulled out her s’mores kit (our family takes s’mores very seriously), it started pouring.

And we never got our s’mores.

So when it came time to put a twist on a classic for Albertsons Pin That Twist!, I had s’mores on the brain.

You guys know that I frequently roast marshmallows over my gas stove to entertain my children and myself. I even have a Microwave S’mores recipe on the blog. I am all about anything that gets me s’mores faster than, you know, lighting a bonfire.

Now I have a way to serve s’mores to the whole family at once! Or keep them all to myself. Whatever.

S’mores Nachos! They are a layer of graham crackers with chopped up milk chocolate candy bars sprinkle over them and then some Jet Puffed Mini Marshmallows on top. Put that in the oven for about 5 minutes and then drizzle with melted chocolate.

Okay, you don’t have to drizzle with more chocolate but it sure looks prettier that way!

Obviously, these nachos are delicious! I made them once for photos and once late that night after the kids were in bed so I wouldn’t have to share!

For more inspiration, check out the Pin That Twist! Pinterest board. If you don’t have an Albertsons near you, check out the boards from Acme Markets, Jewel-Osco, Shaw’s, Star Market, United Supermarkets, and Market Street.
