Mini S’more Recipe

As I and many other bloggers have mentioned, Pinterest is the next best thing to arrive since sliced bread!  Love finding new things to make and do, and my Foodie board is no exception.  Needless to say so many of the dishes look oh SO yummy!!! 

Couple weeks ago I ran across this Mini S’more picture and new it was one dessert I had to try asap.  This past Sunday we headed to the in-law’s to celebrate SIL’s bday and brought these as an extra little dessert. 

I forgot to take pictures but here’s the recipe:

7  whole graham crackers (1 cup finely crushed)
1/4 cup powdered sugar
6 tablespoons butter, melted
4 bars (1.55 oz each) milk chocolate candy, divided
12 large marshmallows
 
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Place graham crackers into a large resealable plastic bag. Finely crush into crumbs. Combine graham cracker crumbs, powdered sugar, and butter in a small bowl.
Place 1 tablespoon of crumb mixture in each cup of a mini muffin pan. Press crumbs to form shallow cups. Bake 4-5 minutes or until edges are bubbling. Meanwhile, 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 slightly softened. Remove pans from oven to cooling rack; cool 15 minutes. Carefully remove cups from pan. Cool completely.
Break remaining candy bars and place in small microwavable bowl. Microwave on high 1 to 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 to 60 minutes or until set. Makes 24 cups.

Here’s my comments: 
- The amounts needed are right on and the only thing I had extra of was the melted chocolate. 
- I used cinnamon graham cracker’s and think I’ll just stick with honey ones.
- These were a big hit, the Hubs has suggested next time using chocolate grahams and jokingly (I think) tell me I should inject some melted chocolate into the marshmallow itself.
