Week 8

No dessert last week, as it was my grandmother's birthday and, quite frankly, I didn't feel like making anything (I had to study for an SAT)


(yeeah, didn't feel like putting up a fancy picture xP)

This Week: Grown Up S'mores

With, you guessed it: alcohol.

Well, a little big anyway. It called for two tablespoons of Kahlua, two tablespoons of white creme de cacao, and two tablespoons of brandy. Instead, I did two and a half tablespoons of Kahlua, the full cacao, and one and a half tablespoons to make up for the liquid of the brandy.

I also got a little thrifty since this recipe called for a creme brulee torch... Instead I put it right underneath the broiler for a couple of seconds. The result? Fantastic. Very rich and creamy and cookie, but my personal favorite was the graham cracker crust. The alcohol in the chocolate was a little two strong for me after a while, so the rating dropped to about a 3 1/2 for me. The rest of the family loved it, though.

Family Rating:4.3
