This afternoon I had the girls help me make a treat for our MOPS leadership meeting. My inspiration came from Crazy Domestic via Be Different, Act Normal. Since 2011 seems to be the year of s'mores for us, this recipe seemed perfect!
Of course, I didn't have graham cracker crumbs, but Natalie had no problem helping me smash! I also didn't have marshmallow hearts, which I didn't think would be a problem. Ummm.... Once you see how they turned out, you'll know to use store-bought marshmallow hearts!
Despite the funky shape, I think they turned out tasty. That's all that matters, right? :) You may recall from my attempt at cake pops 2 years ago, candy melts and I are not good friends. (You'll probably want to get Crazy Domestic's version and tutorial here. They are WAY cuter!)
My girls certainly enjoyed them... and the makings of them!
On another note, our meeting was a huge blessing to me; one of the most memorable nights of my life! Ironically, one of our incredibly talented steering members brought her cake pops which are seriously as gorgeous and delicious as Bakerella's. I kid you not... they are UH-mazing! I brought home a real-life Hello Kitty. I had to laugh seeing mine next to hers... all in good fun!
Those S'more hearts look yummy! And I hear you on the candy melts.... it's harder than it should be! Happy almost birthday!
