S’Mores Cups Recipe

Smore Cups

Yes I know I just gained 2 pounds looking at this but it’s OH so yummy!

Ingredients:

• 7 whole graham crackers, finely crushed
• 1/4 cup powdered sugar
• 6 tbsp butter, melted
• 4 bars milk chocolate candy
• 12 large marshmallows

Directions:

Preheat oven to 350°F (180°C). Place graham crackers into a large resealable plastic bag. Finely crush into crumbs;. Combine graham cracker crumbs, powdered sugar and butter in Small Batter Bowl
Then scoop a small amount of crumb mixture in each cup of a Mini-Muffin Pan. Press crumbs to form shallow cups with a small cup or your hands.  Bake 4-5 minutes or until edges are bubbling

While the crust is in the oven, break two of the candy bars into rectangles. Remove pan from oven; place one rectangle into each cup.  Cut marshmallows in half crosswise using shears dipped in cold water. Place one marshmallow half, cut-side down, into each cup. Return to oven 1-2 minutes or until marshmallows are just slightly softened. Remove from oven to a cooling rack; cool 15 minutes. Carefully remove cups from pan. Cool completely.

Break remaining candy bars and place into a small bowl. Microwave on HIGH 1 minute-1 1/2 minutes or until melted and smooth, stirring every 20 seconds. Dip the top of each marshmallow in melted chocolate. Turn top-side up and let stand 40 minutes-1 hour or until set.

This will make approximately 24 cups.

Easy Weeknight Dinners: Pizza Monkey Bread Recipe

Pizza Monkey Bread

Ingredients:

1/2 cup (1 stick) butter, melted
1/2 teaspoon garlic salt
1 tablespoon Italian seasonings
2 cans Pillsbury Grands Homestyle Biscuits
2 cups finely chopped pizza toppings (pepperoni, cooked sausage, green peppers, etc. Whatever your family likes)
1 cup marinara sauce
2 cups shredded Mozzarella cheese

Directions:

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.

  • In a small bowl, whisk together melted butter, garlic salt and Italian seasonings until combined. Set aside.
  • Remove biscuits from the cans. Take a raw biscuit, and cut a slit in the side. Use your fingers or knife to open up the biscuit to form a “pocket” for the toppings.
  • Gently tuck a pinch of cheese into the pocket of the biscuit, then add in a teaspoon or so or marinara sauce, then add in some pinches of your pizza toppings, top with a final pinch of cheese, then use your fingers to pinch together the dough to seal in the pocket.  Be sure the pocket is well sealed.
  • Dunk the pocket in the butter mixture on both sides, then place in the bundt pan with the seam side up.
  • Repeat with remaining biscuits until they are all filled and placed in the bundt pan side by side.
  • Pour any remaining butter mixture over the top of the biscuits in the bundt pan, then bake for 30 minutes until the dough is cooked and lightly browned.
  • Remove and let sit for 5 minutes.
  • Carefully turn the bundt pan on top of a plate and give it a slight jiggle to release the monkey bread. Serve with a side of Marinara sauce for dipping.
