Smore's Bites

It is almost VALENTINE'S Day, and these are the perfect sweet treat to SHARE with the ones you love. They are so mini and cute, and taste just as good or better than a S'MORE. I promise these are way better than the usual box of CHOCOLATES!


S'mores Bites
(Recipe from sweetpeaskitchen.com)
7 graham crackers (or 1 cup finely crushed)
1/4 cup powdered sugar
6 tablespoons butter, melted
4 regular-size Hershey's Bars, broken into rectangles
12 large marshmallows

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Blend the crackers in a food processor or blender until fine crumbs. Combine with the powdered sugar and melted butter until thoroughly mixed. Evenly divide mixture into a 24-cup mini muffin pan. Firmly press the crumbs down to make shallow cups (I used my small cookie scoop!) Bake for 4 or 5 minutes and then remove from oven and place 1 chocolate rectangle in each cup. Cut marshmallows in half and place, cut side down, over the chocolate squares. Return to the oven for a minute or two until the marshmallows are soft. Cool for 15 minutes in the pan and then put them on a cookie rack to cool completely.

Microwave the remaining chocolate for about a minute, but stirring every 20 seconds until the chocolate melts. Carefully dip the marshmallows in the chocolate and let stand.

TIP: My hubby claims the 8-pack of mini Hershey's Bars is a better deal, so feel free to buy 3 or 4 of those to save some $$$. Otherwise, these are perfect in my opinion!
