So I’m a little late coming to the s’mores party that food bloggers have been attending for the past year or so…
… but now that I’ve arrived, I certainly won’t be the first to leave!
Actually, I just remembered these S’mores Crispy Bars I made a while ago; I had completely forgotten about those! And I did profess my adoration of combining graham cereal and chocolate chips as a s’mores inspired snacky dessert.
So, I guess I have actually posted a couple of s’mores-style desserts.
But today I want to talk to you about breakfast.
Pancakes to be precise.
Chocolate pancakes studded with graham cereal (Three Sisters Graham Crackerz cereal).
Chocolate pancakes studded with graham cereal and smothered in an all-natural marshmallow creme sauce.
Chocolate pancakes studded with graham cereal, smothered in an all-natural marshmallow creme sauce, and finished off with additional graham cereal & a scattering of grain-sweetened chocolate chips.
Mmmmm-hmmmmmm.
The marshmallow creme sauce aside, these pancakes actually taste more like breakfast than dessert.
The pancakes themselves are not very sweet, but they do have a rich chocolate flavor thanks to unsweetened cocoa powder. The cereal – which is a healthier version of Golden Grahams – is sweet but not overly so, and adds a nice crunch to the pancakes.
As for the marshmallow creme sauce, (which consists of all-natural marshmallow creme + a touch of water), it is undeniably an indulgent ingredient for breakfast, but it is also totally necessary in order to replicate the classic s’mores treat.
Trust me.
[Doesn’t the stack of pancakes in the above photograph look like Pac-man attacking a chocolate chip?!]
Make these on Saturday morning. Don’t share.
Then make a double batch on Sunday morning to split with your boyfriend/girlfriend/husband/wife/kid/mom/dad/roommate.
S’mores for breakfast? Heck yeah!
