Smore's (new take on homemade smore's)

                                                 New take on Smore`s at home

My daughter saw a recipe for smore's made at home and my husband decided to change it up. So glad he did because these are absolutely delicious! I hope you enjoy them as much as we do!

Ingredients

 

 

Beat

 

1 cup (250ml) shortening

1 cup (250ml) packed brown sugar



1/2 cup (125ml) granulated sugar

2 eggs

1 1/2 tsp (7ml) vanilla extract

mix well 

 

Stir in

 

2 cups (500ml) all-purpose flour

1 tsp (5ml) baking soda

1/2 tsp (2ml) salt

 

Mix well
 

(this is a cookie dough recipe without the chocolate chips)

 2 bags of chocolate chips

2 bags of mini marshmallow's

Directions

 

 

Pre-heat oven to 375F

1) You will need muffin stones or tins. I use muffin stones. Make sure you use some butter or flour to rub on the sides of the muffin pans so the dough doesn't stick to it, makes it easier to remove when they are baked. We used flour. But would use butter next time.

 

2) The dough will be sticky, so you want to add flour until the dough becomes firmer to work with.

 

3) Roll dough into a good size ball and place in the greased muffin pan and push down with a glass or a tart shaper to make a pastry shell. Bake the shells first for 10 to 12 minutes or until lightly golden.

 

4) Once  the shells are baked  place enough chocolate chips to cover the bottom of the shell. You can always add more or less depending on how much chocolate you want in them.

 

5) Then fill the rest of the pastry shell with mini marshmallows.

 

6) Bake in the oven until the marshmallows are golden brown. Each oven varies.

Hope you enjoy these as much as we did. The cookie dough was such a nice touch rather then the graham crackers.

 



Pizza Rolls

                                                                  PIZZA ROLLS



I started to change the way we are eating. Buying less processed frozen food and trying to make fresh healthy alternatives. These Pizza Rolls are time consuming but very easy to make and are yummy! I make enough to freeze so the kids can enjoy them when ever they want! I like to deep fry them, cool them off and freeze them. They freeze well!                    


                                                                  INGREDIENTS

 

 

 

                                            4 or 6 pkg     Egg roll wrappers  (Zehr's sells them)



                                            can buy 2 or 3 if you just want  to do a small batch
                 Pepperoni ( I buy Ziggy's from Zehr's in a larger bad seems to be the best value)
                                                    Pizza or mozzarella Cheese grated (large 450g)
                                     Pizza Sauce ( I buy Presidents choice in a squeezable bottle)
                                  (Also add veggies, bacon and other meats, I just did simple ones)
                                                                   small bowl of water

fork

                                                                         deep fryer

Directions

Make sure your deep fryer is on and is ready to go

1)Lay a bunch of egg roll wrappers on a flat surface

2)add pizza sauce, as much or little as you like

3)add your meats, then veggies, and then cheese last, as much as you want of each

4)fold over the wrappers and rub the seam with water on your finger, make sure its sealed

5)wet the fork and press down on the ends, make sure they are sealed together

6)place as many egg rolls as you can in the deep fryer

7) once they are golden brown on one side,  flip them to brown the other side because they float.

8)once golden brown on both sides take out and place into a strainer or on some paper towels, then place on cooling racks.

9)they are ready to eat, you can eat them just like that or dip into some pizza sauce

10)after they are cooled off you can freeze them in freezer bags. When you want to warm them up when they are frozen I heat he oven to 400F and cook them till they are warmed through, they remain crispy this way.
