The best s'mores ever made -- hooray for @Plushpuffs




Do you love marshmallows but hate that they're so filled with preservatives?


I think everyone should snap up a few boxes of these delightful artisan marshmallows for the rest of the summer's cook out desserts. Or to eat out of the box. Or to eat out of the...wait. I already said that. You can order them from the site directly, in boxes or in bulk. Or both.

While the site has some great recipes I adapted a 

GRILL TOP S'more RECIPE (here's what they look like assembled).







Two aluminum cupcake pans lined with an aluminum foil cupcake liner (important for removal -- I get these at the Dollar Tree).
I graham cracker, broken in half, for each cup I use American Gra-Frutti gluten free graham crackers.
Two bars Bittersweet or Dark Chocolate (we used Lindt) Broken into chunks
One PLUSH PUFF per cup

Take the tin, and place a half graham cracker on the bottom.
Top with a crumble of chocolate, then a PLUSH PUFF, then more chocolate.
Make a hat for it with another chunk of Graham Cracker.

Place on the grill for about three-five minutes,  Watch carefully! Don't leave them.

Delicious!

Here's more information about PLUSH PUFFS:

Plush Puffs Gourmet Marshmallows are handmade, all natural, low-fat intensely flavored marshmallows! Many varieties are gluten free and have no high-fructose corn syrup. Light, fluffy, billowy puffs of sticky, gooey goodness, these gourmet marshmallows are made the old fashioned way – handmade in a two day process of whipping to a heavenly lightness, and flavored with the absolute highest quality all-natural ingredients. From whipping at a precise time and temperature to cutting them by hand, there are no short cuts taken to make these gourmet Puffs.
Plus there's a great assortment of gluten-free products.  

I hope you like them as much as I did! Order some now for your next treat!

Much love,
Ging






Six months in -- retirement at a glance (or, why I'm so behind on my blogging).

This is a profound apology to all of those merchants who've been sending me samples.

I'm behind and I apologize.

Those who know of my battle with Giant Cell Arteritis/Temporal Arteritis know I'm on chemo and prednisone and battle chronic illnesses. I don't use my health as an excuse lightly -- but I have been behind in my blogging about some fine gluten free products.

I'm going to try to catch up as soon as I can. I appreciate your patience.
