For quite some time I wished & wanted for the Chocolate Cakes cookbook. I finally caved & bought a copy for myself when it went on sale about a month ago.
Tonight we have an activity at church for all the ladies and I'm supposed to bring a favorite snack to share. Instead of bringing a favorite snack, I decided to try a recipe out of my new cook book for s'mores cake ... s'mores seem to be very popular these days.
The recipe turned out pretty good, but I wish I would've bought regular size marshmallows instead of the mini marshmallows. (I should've read the recipe more closely before I went shopping!) I tried adding extra mini marshmallows, but when all was said & done, I wanted more marshmallow in each bite. I think I'll also try adding the marshmallows earlier in the cooking process next time so that they get a little more well-done ... I like my marshmallows burnt and chewy! Oh, I and also subbed bittersweet chocolate for the milk chocolate which made my cakes pretty rich, but milk chocolate is kinda blah to me these days.
I give this recipe 3.5 out of 5 stars but I think I could give it more stars if I play with the marshmallows a bit. This would be a way fun recipe for a child's birthday party or for a backyard camp out.
