WELL... finally happened. For someone that doesn’t really like chocolate very much, the other day I was overtaken by a sudden urge to make ooey gooey melted toasted sweet SMORES. What follows is the story of my smore craving gone very very tastily wrong.
#1 the hunt for smore making materials ended in me sitting on the couch with a baggie of 100 calorie ( if you only eat one bag) TEDDY GRAHAMS, a baggie of what tasted like really old marshmallows, and the piece-de-resistance, a LARGE Hershey chocolate bar.



#2 after one super yummy bite- of regular un melted, un burnt O-natural marshmallow-chocolate and teddy graham tower… the sugar may have set in- and I got creative
This is Sammy-the-smore. He looks like a gloomy Gus, but Ohh contraire, he is happy as a clam.












#3 after the initial sugar shock started to ware off, and the “cold” smores I had been eating got “old” I tried to re-invent the magic that is a warm toasty golden delicious smore J here is where I get creative.

( well I guess at this point it may be PAST "crativity and borderline insaine)
On my kitchen counter sits a very lonely and unassuming Toaster Oven. In my mind and forever it will be known to me as “My Easy Bake Oven”- SOO into the easy bake oven went a few innocent marshmellows to be toasted and baked ( kinda like a little tanning bed for the albino blobs of sugar)



#4 after what seemed like SECONDS out pop the newly tan and mushy melted marshmallow!
Look how pretty they look!!! Crispy and gold- is there a prettier sight in the whole wide world?? Not today.











#5 now those sweet mellow gobs of yummyness
couldn’t just hang out by themselves for to long before a hunk of chocolate plopped down on top causing the “mellow” to smoosh and become a little patty ( of goodness!!!) top it al off with a tiny ( really tiny) little bear … the sugar still speaking, his name is “Teddy”-creative I know..

#6 to much sugar makes for a very happy and a little loopy Ryanne-

#7 now, I know your thinking to yourself how is it possible to improve on the simple yet perfect smore?? Well ill tell you- its call Smore-NATCHOS !!!
yep, I said it. NATCHOS
well of course with just a little push and tug and a sturdy fork I have invented the most sugar-headache inducing food known to man. Don’t get me wrong- it was AMAZING-


#8 end of story I guess is- good thing I only had 100 calorie snack pack of graham crackers. The next morning wasn’t the greatest for me- but it sure was fun and tasty ( again … PRE headache).
