My kids were out burning some twigs in our fire pit out back. A few years ago we wanted to have a place to burn wood, and I insisted on a cement block type square fire pit to burn the wood in.  It’s away from the house and pretty safe, but the brush pile has gotten out of control and my husband put them in charge of working on it.  After eating dinner in front of the fire, I thought s’mores would be the perfect dessert.  It would have been perfect if we had marshmallows – I don’t like to run out to the store for a single ingredient if I can help it.  I had Marshmallow Creme, so I thought I would use that instead.  To kick it up a little, I also added a little bit of home made caramel sauce that I had in the fridge and used organic chocolate with almonds in it.  I put the uncooked s’mores onto the pie irons to warm over the fire and melt the chocolate.  You might need to use your test strips when you’re done to check on your sugar levels, but this was good stuff. 

Ingredients:

• 1 graham cracker – broken in half/ per person
• 1 tsp of marshmallow fluff/ graham cracker
• 1/2 tsp of caramel sauce
• 1 square of chocolate with almonds a little smaller than the graham cracker

Layer the graham cracker with the marshmallow fluff, the caramel sauce, and the square of chocolate(larger than the one in my picture), then the other half of the graham cracker on top. Place it in the pie iron and warm for a couple of minutes on each side.
