OK so last night we made Rice Krispy Peeps. All well and good and tasty. But when you were a Boy Scout for 8 years, there's really only one recipe when it comes to cooking with Marshmallow. The recipe is easy, however building a camp fire in the living room isn't such a good idea. So then I had to get creative.
I have a gas stove. Everyone I know (including my sister in law, Amy, the chef) swears by a gas stove. I hate it personally. However, it does roast marshmallows real nice! But more on that tomorrow! With actual flame broling out of the picture it was back to the trusty microwave. Alright, so after yesterday's Micro-Peep lesson I am sure you're wondering why I would risk another Peep-splosion. Well all in the name of tasty goodness! The secret is to go very slow and very quick. Ten seconds or less. Then you slap on the top real quick. And there's you have it: S'peep? S'pore? P'S'more? Oh who the heck knows what it's call, just eat it! (Be careful of the scorching hot melted chocolate!) For the record it was DARN tasty. The sugar gave an added sweet crunh to it. Also, due to the Peeps girth I had to upsize a bit from a typical S'more. Which led to melted chocolate and marshmallow all over my face and hands. But then again, what's wrong with that?!
PS Chris emailed to tell my that tonight's South Park episode will reveal the birth of the Easter Peeps. I'm not much of a South park fan, but it will be interesting to see their take on it. After all, CNN ran a short peice on them yesterday, too. |
