Indoor S'more Sundaes

As you all know my husband Phil is away on a fishing trip this week so I did a girls night with Phil's aunt Cindy and her daughter Katelyn. Cindy's husband Ken is one of the guys who is completely obsessed with the fishing trip. He was like a kid on Christmas morning the night before they left for their trip, he was so excited about fishing!

For dinner I made Jambalaya ( which I will post another time), a spinach salad, and dessert of the Indoor S'more Sundaes. The s'more sundaes are one of my favorite desserts to make for guests because it can be made in advance. I always feel so bad when I have guests and I am in the kitchen making dessert for a long time after dinner. This is a super easy recipe and I think it is impressive to. It looks much fancier than it is to make, which is always nice when you have guests because it makes you look like you really know what you are doing.

I was really apprehensive the first time I ever made these because putting ice cream in the oven sounds like a messy idea to me. But it is in the oven only long enough to make the marshmallows ooey gooey and scrumptious. The only thing I changed about the original recipe was that I just used Hersey's chocolate syrup instead of making it homemade. I absolutely love this recipe, can you tell?!?!

Graham Cracker Crust:

3/4 cup graham cracker crumbs
3 tablespoons butter, melted
2 tablespoons sugar
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
Salt

4 scoops vanilla ice cream
1 1/2 cups mini marshmallows
Hersey's chocolate syrup

In a large bowl mic the graham cracker crumbs, butter, sugar, cinnamon and a sprinkle of sat.

Firmly press the crust into muffin tins to make individual crusts.

Top each crust with a scoop of vanilla ice cream.

Press the mini marshmallows into the ice cream, covering the scoop completely. You will have 4 s'more cups.

Freeze at least 1 hour.

Preheat broiler on low.

Place s'more cups under broiler for 30 seconds to a couple minutes, depending on your oven, until the marshmallows start to brown.

Top with chocolate sauce.

  1. I love S'mor anything! What a fabulous idea. I have mini-muffin tins, and at the moment I am OBSESSED with all things mini. Do you think these would work in mini size?
