S'mores Pie

I don't know about you, but I love, love, love a s'more.  The whole process of picking out my marshmallows (yes, that was plural), roasting them over the fire, the melting chocolate, and the graham crackers.  I could go on, because they are so delicious and a perfect summer treat.  I usually have two.  I mean, if I'm going to be hanging out at a campfire, which doesn't happen that often, I might as well take advantage of the opportunity, right?  Besides, I probably hiked to the camp fire spot.

Well, I recently came across this recipe on the Tasty Kitchen blog for a S'mores Pie.  It looked divine and a great way to enjoy a s'more inside the A/C.  That's important here in Arkansas. ;)


I made this for a dinner I went to recently.  We finished the pie that night, and my roommate and I were trying to figure out a reason to make another one ASAP.  

The pie has a soft cookie crust, ooey gooey marshmallow cream, a layer of yummy chocolate bars, a sprinkling of mini marshmallows, a top cookie crust and finishing touch of chocolate chips.  The chocolate melts, and all the marshmallows bubble up and become toasty on top.  

This is definitely a crowd pleaser.  Once you have a slice, you might need a second one (not that I'm speaking from experience or anything).

Here is the link to the original recipe.  I did make one alteration-- the original calls for 8 Hershey bars, but I only used 4, which turned out to be plenty!
