S’mores

by outtathyme December 2, 2018May 28, 2019

My boys LOVE the movie ‘The Sandlot’. So much so my oldest had a Sandlot themed birthday party. Naturally we had S’mores for dessert. I don’t think you could come across an easier dessert! Next time I may add nutella or peanut butter. We are nuts over here.

Can we talk about nostalgia? You know the feeling – when you just want to go back to that place, that time, eat that specific food, talk to that person. All the things! With my boys getting bigger, I have been trying to incorporate some of my favorite things I did as a child and recreate those for them. This one happens to also remind me of my favorite person, my Grandma. Spoiler alert, incorporating nostalgic food tend to be there favorite ones. They’re no dummies.

Ingredients

Halo Top or Breyers Strawberry Ice cream (or your fav)
Sprecher Brewing Co Cream Soda
Ice, optional

Instructions

This is really personal preference on ice cream to cream soda ratio.

Since I share this with my kids, I go heavier on the ice and add one generous scoop of ice cream and then pour the cream soda to the top.

Sweet and Smoky Grilled Peaches

Print This

Serves: 6-8

Nutrition facts: 200 calories 20 grams fat

Ingredients

6 peaches, preferably freestone
Olive oil
1/4 cup brown sugar
Ice cream or whipped cream

Instructions

Light a gas grill to medium heat.
Put Brown Sugar in a plate
Halve and pit the peaches. Run a sharp knife along each peach’s seam to halve them. Remove the pit and brush each cut side with olive oil. Then dip the cut side of the peach into the brown sugar to get just a coating of sugar on the peach
Grill cut-side down, over medium heat, for 4 to 5 minutes. Place the peaches cut-side down on the grill and cook undisturbed until grill marks appear, 4 to 5 minutes.
Flip the peaches and cook until tender, 4 to 5 minutes. Flip the peaches and grill until the skins are charred and the peaches are soft, 4 to 5 minutes more.
Serve the peaches. Remove from the grill. Serve the grilled peaches with vanilla ice cream or whipped cream.
