Marshmallows, graham crackers, white chocolate, yellow cake mix…
Am I speaking your language?
My language primarily consists of things like marshmallows and graham crackers…closely followed by, I’m going to kill the cat…did you remember to record that?…I don’t know, I need coffee first…
Mikey speaks my language…
Chances are if you read this blog, your language includes white chocolate and yellow cake too.
This is a simple recipe.
Which deserves a simple post.
We are talking major childhood (adulthood) favorite here!
I seem to remember one of my uncles ex-girlfriends making this for us once.
My mom says it is a recipe from one of my Aunts…but I disagree.
I faintly remember this ex because after she made this rice krispie roll for us…she became my favorite.
Feed me dessert and I will love you forever.
This is by far the best chocolate cake I’ve ever made/tasted.
Who knew that a can of Guinness Beer could produce the richest and most decadent chocolate cake?!
I made these in lieu of St. Patricks day/my brother-in-law’s going away party.
You see, my brother in law, Timmy has been living with Mikey and me for the past 2 months while he goes to beer-brewing school.
Yup, that’s a thing.
He is in school to become a brewmaster or master brewer of beer or something like that.
He does (did) 2 months here in Chicago at a school called Siebel, and on Saturday leaves for Germany where he’ll be for the remaining 4 months of the program.
Not bad, eh?
So…we had a going away party for him and paired all of the food with beer, obviously.
Being a baker I decided I had to make a beer inspired dessert…which is where these little babies were born.
Scotch-A-Roos are not blog worthy.
I realize this and I apologize for the fact that you made these in 3rd grade.
But I will not apologize for the fact that they are 1. Super easy/don’t require turning on an oven in these record breaking and scorching Chicago temps and 2. Still delicious after all these years.
I’m on a coconut kick.
All those years of disliking it are catching up with me and now I’m trying to make up for lost time.
I am finding out that waaaaaay more people like coconut than I thought.
Like…pretty much everyone I know.
