S’mores Pie: Totally Irresistible
As the 4th of July drew near, I realized I had no red, white and blue recipes to make for our annual neighborhood gathering. But I thought back to the S’mores pie I created years ago. S’mores evoke memories of our summer holidays in Colorado where we’d hike to our favorite picnic area nestled among the pines along the Roaring Fork River. After our brats or burgers were grilled, it was time to hunt down the perfect toasting sticks for our marshmallows.We’d all lose at least one to the fire and have one incinerated to a crisp before achieving that ideal brown exterior with a soft gooey interior. Sandwiched between sweet graham crackers with a few squares of a Hershey bar, my sisters and I savored these campfire classics. Pure Americana, and my slightly more elegant version was an ideal way to celebrate the birthday of our country.
