S’mores Bars:
Ingredients:
1 box of Golden Grahams cereal
1 tsp vanilla extract
¼ cup butter
15 oz (1 ½ bag) of mini marshmallows
4 king size Hershey milk chocolate bars
Directions:
In a large pot, on medium heat, melt butter. Once melted add the mini marshmallows, but make sure to save a handful for decoration once finished. Allow the marshmallow and butter mixture to melt together.
Once the mixture is fully melted and looks gooey, add vanilla extract.
Once the vanilla is fully mixed into the marshmallow, butter mixture, turn off the heat.
After all is combined, pour in the cereal and mix well.
After cereal is fully coated, add half of your chocolate. Make sure they are broken apart into smaller pieces.
Grease a 9×12 pan and pour in the mixture.
Flatten out mixture in the pan with a spatula.
With the remaining chocolate, decorate the top of the bars by placing the pieces in places that look like they need more chocolate.
In addition, with the remaining marshmallows decorate the top of the bars.
Finally, put the pan with the mixture into the refrigerator to chill for at least 30 minutes. After that, they are the perfect treat!
Oreo truffles:
Ingredients:
1 package (14.3 oz) of Oreos
1 block (8 oz) of cream cheese
2 (Lindt/your favorite brand) chocolate bars (white or milk chocolate)
Festive sprinkles/crushed candy canes
Directions:
In a food processor or blender, blend the Oreos till they are fully crushed.
Add the block of cream cheese to the food processor or blender and blend until fully combined.
Grab a large baking sheet, lined with parchment paper.
Start rolling the Oreo, cream cheese mixture into 1 oz balls and place them onto the lined baking sheet.
Once you have finished rolling out the mixture, freeze the Oreo truffles for about 30 minutes.
After that, melt both chocolate bars in the microwave or on the stove. If melting in the microwave, do 30 second intervals and mix in between each.
Take the Oreo truffles out of the freezer and start dipping them into the chocolate until they are fully covered. It is easiest to place the truffle onto a fork and then lower it into the chocolate.
Garnish with the festive sprinkles or crushed candy canes.
Put the final Oreo truffles back into the freezer for another 30 minutes and they are ready to enjoy!
