Did everyone have a fabulous Thanksgiving and stuff themselves silly? Well I sure did. And it was glorious. I ate my weight in potatoes and I don’t regret it one little bit.
And I’m ready to hit the holidays hard. For me, that means a few things:
BAKING. lots and lots of baking. the amount of baking going on in my kitchen this week scares me. someone send taste testers.
It’s time to throw some PARTIES. Complete with lots of fun cocktails and cocktail dresses. And fabulous shoes. Obviously.
SLOW COOKER meals. hell yes. Isn’t it the best when you can just throw stuff in a pot and come back 8 hours later to dinner?
SHOPPING!! oh absolutely. I can’t even wait. I haven’t bought any new lululemon gear in over 9 days – and that needs to change immediately.
These are pretty epic. Especially when served for breakfast, still warm, with a little bit of strawberry preserves on the side. I fully endorse a little treat like this before you start your day. It’s the holidays after all, and we’ve got all of January to recover from the holiday baking season, am I right?
I’ve been a scone fan for a number of years now. There are a multitude of scone recipes on this site and today, I’m adding to that! These s’more scones are exactly what they sound like. I substitute a little bit of the flour for some pulverized graham crackers. It’s the right thing to do. And then I toss in a handful of chocolate chips and marshmallows. The marshmallows toast up just the right amount in the oven and come out looking gorgeous.
I don’t know about you, but we have a few rounds of house guests coming to stay with us over the next 2-3 weeks, and these will totes be making an appearance on the breakfast table while our guests are here.
S’more Scones
Ingredients
- 1 1/4 cup all purpose flour
- 1 1/4 cup graham crackers pulvarized
- 2 tablespoon sugar
- 1 tablespoon baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1 cup marshmallows
- 3/4 cup semi sweet chocolate chips
- 1 1/2 cups heavy cream
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 425 degrees F.
- In a large bowl, combine the flour, graham cracker crumbs, sugar, baking powder and salt. Mix together with a fork.
- Add the marshmallows and chocolate chips and stir everything together. Add the heavy cream to the dry mixture and combine together with a fork until everything loosely holds together.
- Using your hands, form large mounds out of the dough, about 1/4 cup of dough for each scone. Place the scones onto a parchment lined baking sheet and refrigerate for 45 minutes before baking.
- Place into preheated oven and bake for 13-15 minutes until fully baked. Remove and let cool slightly before serving.
- They are extra delicious if you serve them with a spoonful of nutella or strawberry jam.
i LOVE this recipe!!
I love all of your reasons to be excited for the holidays, and of course, this recipe!
You had me hooked at the name! A-MAZING!
This is such a fun idea! Can you believe I’ve never had a scone?
These would be perfect with a steaming cup of hot chocolate! It’s snowing today in VT and all I want to do is head home bake a batch of these and curl up with a good book (and hot cocoa of course!) 🙂
The toasted marshmallows put this over the top! Great idea!
This is so brilliant! I love scones and chocolaty smores. This recipe is way too fun for just the holidays.
LOVE scones and love s’mores – definitely saving this recipe!
I couldn’t agree with you more with all 4 of your key points. i seriously think if we lived closer together – we’d be very very good friends cause I’d love to do all 4 of those things together! especially #4…oh shopping 🙂
Great idea, these look delicious and I can’t wait to try them!
I adore scones, all kinds of scones. These scones are pretty indulgent, and this is the perfect time of year to indulge. Perfect with a cup of hot coffee.
Smore Scones!? How excellent!
In the oven right now! Can’t wait for them to come out!
