Rating: 4 strawberries
Notes: Dinner Party! A great way to get people to contribute and flame some mallows! This dish was great, but I served it cold and I think a warm puddin’ would be more smore’s like. Also, I think the store bought crusts were too thin, I wanted more graham cracker, but all in all a crown pleasure and a dish licker! Thanks for coming Lucy, Maggie, Travis and Jack!
