Food Recipes: Smores Pie

I love Smores, but who doesnt? Marshmallow, chocolate and graham crackers... Its a winning combo! The only thing I dislike is the mess they make when you eat them. Sure some people think thats the fun part, but I dont. Im a clean freak and hate it when I take a bite into a Smore and all the filling oozes out the sides of the graham cracker and the rest lands on my shirt. Eating Smores in pie form makes me a happy girl. You eat it with a fork and let all the gooey marshmallow and chocolatey goodness just land in straight into your mouth. Right where its supposed to be! Mmmmm

Smores Pie

slightly adapted from: Cookies and Cups

1/2 cup salted butter

3/4 cup white sugar

1 large egg

1 teaspoon vanilla

1 cup all purpose flour

1 cup graham cracker crumbs

1 teaspoon baking powder

1 (7 ounce) jar Marshmallow Creme (dont use regular marshmallows)

4 Regular sized Hersheys Bars, broken into pieces

wax or parchment paper

DIRECTIONS: Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Spray a 9 inch glass pie pan with baking spray.

Beat butter and sugar together until fluffy and combined. Add egg and vanilla until incorporated.

On low speed add in flour, graham cracker crumbs and baking powder. Divide the dough in half.

Press half of the dough in the bottom and sides of the prepared pie pan. Evenly spread the Marshmallow Creme over the bottom of crust. Spread the broken chocolate pieces on top of the Marshmallow Creme.

Form the remaining dough into a ball and place it on a piece of wax or parchment paper. Top with another piece of wax or parchment paper and flatten into a 9 inch circle with a rolling pin. Carefully peel off the top piece of wax paper.

Flip the crust onto the top of pie and peel off the other piece of paper. Pinch the dough together to form the crust. Bake for 20 minutes or until lightly browned. Cool completely and then slice and serve.

(When I served mine, I slightly heated up slices in the microwave and served with vanilla ice cream.. YUM!)
