So, it's Wednesday.
I went over to the Random Number Generator to pick someone for the class.
But I felt so bad.
I think I have entered roughly 582 contests just like this, and I have never won.
So I thought I would post one of my favorite recipes here for everyone else, who didn't win.
The winner DOES NOT get to copy the recipe. Or make it. Heh.
This is a perfect recipe for potlucks, since it makes a lot,
and it is very tasty,
and most likely you already have the ingredients in the pantry.
Also, it is low-fat--cause marshmallows are mostly air. And graham crackers aren't that fattening. And the chocolate chips? Well, doesn't the butterfat slide out of those when you melt them? I think it does. And then there is coconut, which we all know is a fruit. Or maybe a vegetable. So, see...healthy!
**This recipe makes TWO 9x13 pans of S'mores. You can cut it in half, but then you are left with a half of a bag of chocolate chips. And a half a bag here, is an empty bag the next day. I eat chocolate chips a handful at a time, cause I think they don't really count that way. This is why I necessitated a membership to Weight Watchers. You won't regret having two pans of these bars. Trust me.**
S'mores Bars
2 cubes butter, softened
1 c. packed brown sugar
2 c. flour
1 1/2 c. graham cracker crumbs (one package--not the whole box, just one package)
Beat margarine and sugar until light and fluffy. Add about 1/4 c. water, then add combined flour and crumbs, mix well. Press into bottom of two (2) buttered 9x13 pans.
Layer on top(s)(Split these ingredients between the two pans):
1 1/2 c. shredded coconut
1 (12 oz) pkg. chocolate chips (we like semi-sweet)
1 c. chopped nuts (I leave out, blech)
4 c. mini-marshmallows
Bake at 375 for 15-20 minutes until marshmallows are puffy and golden brown. Cool, cut into squares.
Oh yeah, the winner of the class. Silly me. Thinking about toasted marshmallows.
I randomly generated from HERE.
And the winner is.....
Number 18.

Thanks for the recipe, looks yummy. I didn't dare enter the contest, because i know I never win, that and I would be intimidated to do any professional scrapbooking!
Sounds great. You're just the bomb, aren't you?!!
They look yum yum thanks
Thanks for the parting gift :)! I am glad you did this contest, because it helped me discover your blog--you are so entertaining. I already knew you were one of my favorite scrappers, but I love your down to earth writing style. I haven't jumped into that scary tech-blog world yet, but I have friends who have, and can I just say I appreciate a little sarcasm and reality with my daily update...not just all that bragging about the kids and the vacation crap. You are genuine and I love it!

So...these bars have virtually no carbs or calories, right? right? (nods head for a 'yes')...snicker, snort, chortle, guffaw, gasp, choke, gag! (swallowed my own spit down the air tube again, cripes!)
love ya!
