Smores Galore

I'm disappointed now that we didn't think to take pics of our creations, but we made some blog-worthy smores last weekend. We didn't come up with the ideas, but we highly recommend them. Pofta buna!

Banana Smores
Cut an unpeeled banana in half the long way, and grill face down for 3 minutes. Flip and brush with melted butter and cinnamon, then grill for 3 more minutes. Cut into slices and use in place of marshmallows in a smore. They're even better if you can force yourself to wait until the chocolate is good and melty. I never thought mallows could be replaced, but wowie zowie.

Stroopie Smores
Heat a stroopwafel in the microwave for about 10 seconds. Put chocolate and a roasted marshmallow on top and fold up like a taco. This solves the overly crunchy graham cracker problem, where the insides squirt out before you can get a good bite.
