When I was vegan I attempted many recipes my favourite of
which was published within my last post. Another recipe I enjoyed actually
tastes a great deal better when it is not vegan therefore I adapted the recipe
in order to make it a little tastier. The recipe is based one of my favourite “kid’s”
food.
Although I enjoy gourmet food from Michelin star restaurants
or very specific biscuits and cakes with the most unique or random of ingredients
(my friends call it being a “food snob”) I do enjoy the occasional simple snack
or processed junk. I may not like pizza or coke, but I still enjoy Oreo, Doritos
or S’mores. For anyone that is unaware s’mores are campfire treats which are
simply chocolate chunks and marshmallows sandwiched between two chocolate digestives.
One cannot even imagine the calories and if you don’t have a sweet tooth I would
highly recommend staying away from them. However they are a great combination
for a biscuit and when in biscuit form certainly not as messy and do not fall
apart as quickly. They are great after school snack and not to sweet or
calorific.
Ingredients: (makes 12)
·
100g of light brown sugar
·
150g of butter*
·
180g of self-rising flour
·
6 lotus biscuits
·
50g of mini marshmallows*
·
90g of milk chocolate chips*
*As said above this recipe was adapted from being vegan and
is can be vegan by using vegan marshmallows, dark chocolate chips and margarine
instead.
Method:
1.
Heat the oven to 180’c, gas mark 4
2.
Crush the lotus by putting them in a zip-lock
bag and bashing with a rolling pin
3.
Set aside
4.
Melt the butter for 1 minute until almost melted
5.
Pour in the light brown sugar and mix until
creamy
6.
Sift the self-rising flour and mix
7.
Pour in the crushed biscuits, marshmallows and
chocolate chips and mix until a dough is formed (you may want to add a little
Milk if the dough is too crumbly or a little more flour if the dough is too
wet, make sure to do it in TINY amounts at a time to avoid making a mistake)
8.
Take a bit of dough and roll it into a ball and
place on a greased tray
9.
Make sure the dough balls are evenly spread out
as they will spread more than expected
10.
Cook for 13-15 minutes
11.
Set aside to cool and then enjoy!!
Although not the healthiest they are still very enjoyable I highly
recommend trying the recipe. If you have any other recipes then please comment
