At Sweet C’s, I add lots of tips in all of my recipes – because I am a home cook without any formal training, and I find I am more confident making dishes when I understand why it works, and what each ingredient means to the flavor of a recipe – my goal is for even the most beginner home cook to feel empowered in the kitchen.
I want each reader to walk away with a solid knowledge of each recipe, with all of the tips I’ve gathered from extensive testing of each recipe. I also answer questions my friends and family have asked about my recipes, to help everyone better understand the processes we use – and why!
Sweet Crispy S’mores Rice Krispie Treats
When I think of summer, after all of the delicious fresh, local produce, I think of s’mores. The quintessential campfire dessert. Something that I’ve come to realize is actually quite a Canadian and American thing. My mom, who grew up in England and Greece, had never had a s’more before and I actually had to explain to her what they were when I was testing this recipe. Can anyone confirm, are s’mores a North American thing?
For this summer dessert, I channeled my inner child and combined two of my favourite childhood desserts together; the rice krispie treat and the s’more. It’s basically a glorified chocolate rice krispie treat, that is incredibly decadent and impressive. Trust me, you bring a plate of these to any summer gathering and people will be blown away.
This recipe is made in two parts, first is the rice krispie treat base where you mix in some of the s’mores ingredients (crumbled graham crackers and chocolate, to be exact) and then it’s pressed into a pan and topped with more marshmallows, crumbled graham crackers and chocolate. You throw this pan under the broiler for about four minutes, just to char the top of the marshmallows and mirror that smoky, campfire look and you’re good to go.
