Reese's Peanut Butter Cup S'mores

Pin It


Call me crazy but I'm not a big s'mores fan. However while shopping at the store the other day some marshmallows caught my eye that are specially made for that forever summer time favorite of s'more making. As soon as I saw them, an idea occurred to me, why not do a variation of a s'more using different ingredients. That's how I found myself in the candy aisle looking for something that was chocolate but maybe a little different than a typical Hershey's bar which is the typical s'mores choice. Then I saw them, those delicious and addicting Reese's Peanut Butter Cups and I knew I had what I was looking for.





These are a s'more making lifesaver if there ever was one. 
You might be asking yourself, how do I make s'mores at home? The process is a lot easier and less messy than you might think. First, you need some of the specially designed marshmallows I was talking about earlier because they make s'more making so much easier. After you get you're Reese's Peanut Butter Cups and Graham crackers, then it's a matter of these simple instructions....

It was really hard not to eat them pre-toaster oven because they looked oh so sweet.
You're going to want to do these in preferably a toaster oven as opposed to a big oven because you can keep an eye on them better. Also, line your tray pan with foil to make cleanup easier when the chocolate melts. I told you this was simple... as you see them in the above picture is how you want to put them in the toaster oven, breaking the graham crackers into smaller squares putting one marshmallow down for each and then one peanut butter cup to top it off but leave off the top graham cracker.


After you get those delicious looking things all set up on the tray pan, just pop them in the toaster oven at 350 degrees until the marshmallows look like they are getting puffy.


Wha-la, after popping them out of the oven, all that is left to do is crown them with that missing graham cracker top and go to town. There you go, you just completed a dessert that took 10 minutes at the most, without the mess, and with a delicious peanut butter cup twist. I don't know about you but I just polished mine off and they were 100x better than the Hershey variety so enjoy.

Verdict: If you make this once, you'll be making it again guaranteed and even planning out the next time you make it. This is a definite try and comes very highly recommended!
