This weekend I was planning on making some S'mores over the campfire. Well, lot´s of rain, so no campfire. However, with a little bit of creativity S'mores can also be fun indoors. I melted the marshmallows in a pan and instead of cookies I just added some cereals and put the chocolate on top. It´s quick and easy with only one more thing to add: "calorie counters you better stay away from them".

Instead of adding potatoes, I used pumpkin mash. For the filling, I added pumpkin spice and one cup of eggnog to the original cream cheese frosting. As granola…
Last weekend we had the Christmas Market in our street. The smart friends do not only show up when it starts in the afternoon, they announce themselves for breakfast. To give it a little Christmas kick I prepared a Pumpkin Spice Granola. It`s the regular recipe from my book with added pumpkin pie spice and canned pumpkin. Not to forget, Sunday was also the 15th birthday of our downhill bike professional neighbor Robert. Each year I ask him what kind…
Do you like White Chocolate?, do you like Marshmallows?, do you like Oreo Cookies? Then you certainly love this White Chocolate Cookies 'n' Cream fudge. The White mixture of evaporated milk, white chocolate morsels und marshmallow cream is one of the best home made 'impersonations' of the Oreo white filling that I came across recently. So these sweet yummy bars might also be called 'Cookies fudged into home made white Oreo filling".
