My dad mentioned that he wanted some brownies, so I looked in the pantry and saw graham crackers and marshmallows. Then, I thought what if I could make a version of smores in the comfort of our little cottages kitchen. Just like that these Smore Brownies were born. –Our son Nate, one of the Platter Talk Kids
These oven s’mores are a fun and easy dessert.
S’more Brownies
Our kids have been cooking for a long time already and at the ripe old age of 13, our twin boys Nate and Asher often come up with their own recipe ideas.
Nate, one of the Platter Talk Kids, is growing into a real kitchen talent.
That’s what happened last night, just before movie night at our little weekend cottage in rural Wisconsin.
