Marshmallow infused vodka



  • marshmallow vodka martini



  • 1 750 ml bottle vodka
  • 1 16 oz bag marshmallows
  • large clean jar with tight fitting lid

Directions

  1. 1Place marshmallows in jar.
  2. 2Pour in vodka.
  3. 3Seal, and allow to sit for 24 hours.
  4. 4Strain through a double layer of dampened cheesecloth. Dampening the cheesecloth stops it from soaking up any of the vodka. (I like to strain several times. rinsing the cheesecloth and wringing out between each round.
  5. 5Store in sealed bottle in refrigerator. Keeps for several weeks.
    • 2 oz marshmallow-infused cake vodka (see below for recipe link)
    • 2 oz cherry soda
    • 1  maraschino cherry

    Directions

    1. 1Chill all ingredients.
    2. 2Pour vodka and soda into a mixing glass - stir.
    3. 3Pour into martini glass.
    4. 4Drop cherry in bottom.
    5. 5Enjoy!

Homemade Snickers




Homemade Snickers Bars
[recipe from Nikki, who lightly adapted it from and old Taste of Home recipe]
makes one 9×13 pan
bottom chocolate layer
1 1/4 cups milk chocolate chips
1/4 cup peanut butter
Thoroughly grease you baking pan. Melt ingredients together in a saucepan or microwave, then pour into the baking dish and spread until even. Let cool and harden completely.
nougat layer
1/4 cup unsalted butter
1 cup granulated sugar
1/4 cup evaporated milk
1 1/2 cups marshmallow fluff
1/4 cup peanut butter
1 1/2 cup salted peanuts chopped, roughly chopped
1 tsp vanilla extract
Melt butter in a saucepan over medium heat. Add in sugar and milk, stirring until dissolved and bring to a boil. Let cook for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally. Add in fluff, peanut butter and vanilla, stirring until smooth. Turn off heat and fold in peanuts, then pour over bottom chocolate layer. Let cool completely.
caramel layer
1 14-ounce bag of caramels
1/4 cup whipping cream
Combine ingredients in a saucepan over low heat. Let melt, stirring occasionally, until smooth – this took about 10 minutes for me. Pour over nougat layer and let cool completely.
Top chocolate layer
1 1/4 cups milk chocolate chips
1/4 cup peanut butter
Melt ingredients together in a saucepan or microwave, then pour over caramel and spread until even. Let cool and harden completely.
Refrigerate for at least one hour before serving, then cut as desired. These can stay at room temperature, but they do get gooey. I like them refrigerated best!
Note: for best results, buy one of the half-sheet aluminum cake pans at the grocery store. That way, you can pop the entire square out and cut from there!
I can’t even take that.
