Christmas Presents

After much debate on how to cheaply send quite a few of my friends Christmas presents, I finally decided on attempting to make some chocolate bars. I bought some molds and went to work.


I have a TREMENDOUS addiction to S'mores anything. My favorite desserts include S'mores ice cream sandwiches and S'mores cupcakes. So... sorry friends, out of some slight self interest, I made you S'mores chocolate bars (and horded several for myself). However, making a chocolate candy bar by tempering some chocolate, melting some marshamallow and opening a box of graham crackers to make these creations seemed too simple and involved enough to be considered a present. To bump up the challenge, I decided to make my own marshmallow fluff. Other than that, I pretty much just followed the recipe from Not So Humble Pie.

Some thoughts: I think I made the chocolate bar too thick. You couldn't really taste the marshmallow and graham cracker.  Ah well, I have no qualms about making them again. ^_^

Merry Christmas!
