Not Just Smore's

Smore's, the epitome of summer. The idol by which we honor camp outs, bonfires, and the month of July. Being on a campus, however, impedes our ability to build up a nice set of flames and go roasted marshmallow crazy.  So we had to adapt, and we might have gone a little crazy.


The best invention of the summer!

PEANUT BUTTER BROWNIE SMORE'S 

Ingredients

Box mix of brownies

baking powder

vegetable oil/canola oil

mini marshmellows

peanut butter

graham crackers

How to make themStep one: Mix up brownie mix, we did not have any eggs, so to replace the two eggs, we added 4teaspoons of baking powder and extra vegetable oil and water.

Step two: Bake the brownies, BUT prior to putting the pan in the oven generously sprinkle the batter with mini marshmellows. These will melt and brown ontop of the brownies as they bake.

 (Maybe it was the no eggs, or maybe it was the crazy humidity and weather that we tried baking during, but the brownies remand moister than usual, and didn't develop the glazed top that you usually expect from box mix.)  

Step 3: While the brownies are cooling, put a 1/2 cup or more of peanut butter in a glass measuring cup and heat in the microwave until spreadable.

Step 4: Break graham crackers in half, putting a hearty spoonful of melted peanut butter ontop of them. This is the glue to hold the piece of brownie on it. Once the chocolate and marshmellow middle of the smore is in place, top with another graham cracker half.

Step 5: Enjoy!

I can honestly tell you, that when we made these we had friends quite literaly run from their rooms to join us in the lounge. It is hard to stop at just one, and I have to confess, my roommate and I each had a leftover one for breakfast this morning!!!!!
