Desert Recipes: S'more Cups, No Campfire Needed!

Sometimes it's better to eat desert before dinner, so the first recipe I want to share is a favorite with my family. It comes from the Pampered Chef cookbook and the desert is s'more cups. This recipe is perfect for small children to help with or for a dinner date. It makes 24 cups at a time and each cup has 100 calories!

S'more Cups


Ingredients:
7 whole graham crackers, finely crushed
1/4 cup powered sugar
6 tbsp butter, melted
4 Hershey bars, divided into single squares
12 large marshmallows

Directions
1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Place graham crackers into a plastic bag and crush them with a rolling pin. Place the graham crackers, powered sugar, and melted butter into a bowl and mix together. Use a spoon and place a small amount of mixture into a small tart pan or small muffin pan. Place in the oven for 4-5 minutes. While mixture is in the oven, cut the marshmallows into halves, this can be done with scissors, and break the Hershey bars into squares.
2. When the mixture comes out of the oven, put 1 piece of Hershey bar on top, followed by the marshmallow half. Put the cups back into the oven for another minute. Take them out and let the cups sit and cool for 15 minutes.
3.After the 15 minutes is up, take the left over Hershey bar and melt it in the microwave. Use a spoon and pour a nice amount of Hershey bar on top of each cup. Let the cups sit until chocolate has hardened or the way that my family likes to eat them, straight out of the oven with the chocolate is still gooey.

This recipe is easy to complete and can be changed according to taste. For example, you can use dark chocolate instead of milk chocolate or even white chocolate.

I hope you enjoy this recipe as much as I do! Happy Cooking!
