I went to Houston last weekend to visit a few of my besties. A friend who lives in BR joined me for the ride. The trip from BR to Houston isn't long but it sure was nice to have someone along for the drive. When we arrived in town, we stopped at the Chocolate Bar. They have anything and everything you can imagine made with chocolate, dipped in chocolate, filled with chocolate ... you get the idea. I got chocolate nutter butter ice cream. It was ridiculously good. Nutter butters were ground up and then swirled in dark chocoalte ice cream. I plan on recreating it soon. If I ever remember to freeze the Cuisinart.
We also all bought a few treats to bring back with us. I bought chocolate covered nutter butters (What's that? You think I have a small obsession with chocolate and peanut butter? I dunno.) And my friend bought chocolate dipped s'mores. Well, on the way home she realized that her s'mores were in fact chocolate dipped rice krispies ... yummy, but a disappointing revelation.
So, I did what any good friend would do. I made some for her once we got back in town, only I added peanut butter (surprised?). I used reduced fat graham crackers, reduced fat peanut butter, and dark chocolate. Because I only make healthy treats. Because I am such a good friend. I did put marshmallow fluff in there as well, but that is mostly air anyway, so it doesn't count. I had a few strawberries that were about to go bad, so I dipped them in chocolate. If we still had the food pyramid, I think I would have covered every level.
Enjoy. I know I did. Ah, I mean my friend did.
