The summer brings cool evenings out on the deck. It’s one of my favorite things after a long day at work. While meal prepping for the week, I often look for quick and easy meal ideas leaving more time to relax and enjoy with friends. While shopping at Walmart, I came across the in-store display for S’mores. How convenient everything that I would need to build my s’mores be in one location. Honey Maid Graham Cracker Squares, Kraft Jet Puff Marshmallows and our favorite Hershey’s Milk Chocolate Bars. You don’t always need a campfire to make s’mores, I had a new idea. S’mores on a Stick!

These S’mores on a stick are incredibly easy to create and it’s great because you can prepare them ahead of time or within 10 minutes.

1. Crush the Honey Maid Graham Cracker Squares. This can be done in a bowl, food processor or even in a plastic bag with a rolling pin. (Maybe get some aggression out after a long day.) Set aside.

2. In a double boiler or pot, melt the Hershey’s Milk Chocolate Bar(s), stirring frequently. Once melted, remove from heat. A little goes a long way here so you’ll be amazed on how many you can make with just a couple chocolate bars.

3. Place Kraft Jet Puff Marshmallows on a stick (kabob sticks are they are what I had available).

4. Dip the marshmallow in melted Hershey’s chocolate. Cover completely.

5. Immediately roll in the crushed Honey Maid Graham Cracker Squares.

Ta-da! You are finished. These are great to set aside in the fridge for later or eat them right off (the warm chocolate will make the marshmallows a soft for that smooth texture).

The checkout aisle can surprisingly bring upon the best snacks and even creations for a dessert. It’s not just for the mid-day snacks, it’s also for the after dinner treats. How easy is to to be on-the-go and grab your favorite treat? One of my favorites is SNICKERS® and they’ve just come out with a  couple more flavors to take on the road or your favorite hike. I’ve even found a way to incorporate them into a tasty dessert.

Have you seen the Peanut Butter Squares or SNICKERS® Almond bars? I recently came upon them in the check out aisle at my local grocer (which are new to me). Not only did I grab a couple for an upcoming day trip but also for a recipe to bring into for my co-workers.

The recipe I made for my co-workers was super easy! Here we go…
First, I chopped and combined the SNICKERS® bars and apples and placed them into the pie dish and drizzled them with the caramel sauce.

Next, I poured the Cool Whip, condensed milk and cream cheese mixture on top. The final touch was placing fresh cut apple slices on top for the full effect. Yum!

This is a great treat for the fall or even for the extra crisp affect coming into the spring season.

Over the holiday’s I made two batches of this Maple Peanut Butter Pie and received great reviews. Not only is it great for the Vermonter (we are talking maple syrup here), it’s great for all those with a sweet tooth. A homemade maple cookie crust, chocolate fudge layer with a sweet peanut butter filling. Top with homemade maple whipped cream and you’ll be enjoying this slice of life! Not to mention, it’s super easy?!
