you are a genius!!! those bars look amazing!
ReplyDeletehahahah i laughed out loud about you being cold in 68 degree weather. where i live (portland, oregon) it was like 15 degrees today! So. cold.
anyway i really wanted to comment to you adn tell you that today i baked some cookies and i browned the butter and i saw that you do that. browning the butter makes the cookies soo good
Well where do I begin...with the fact that you need to get Eric soft flannel shirts and pants for Christmas, your delicious appetizer or these fantastic brownies!!!!
ReplyDeleteI love everything about this recipe. Graham crackers! Marshmallow! Chocolate! Cheesecake! It's all too good to be true. Printing recipe now. Yum!
ReplyDeleteI'm always cold too - I was even blue when I came out of the womb. Poor circulation, always :) Oh and it's 14°F here, so THAT doesn't help. Brr!! Stay warm.
ReplyDeletePerfect WARM campfire-esque treat there!
These look soooooooo goooood!
ReplyDeleteDelicious! When I hear the word s'mores I can't help but think of The Sand Lot. Man I love that movie. Sorry totally off topic. I also have to agree with you about the old men fashion sense. They are just so adorable :)
ReplyDeleteThose are such stunningly *edible* photos! The marshmallows are just the perfect amount of toasty on top. I love them!
ReplyDeleteKeep warm, Emily!!
Oh my gosh, I love flannel shirts and funky old man hats. Next time, just ask for their hats and shirts instead of a tip...I dare ya.
ReplyDeleteI'm always cold too. It's the temps drop below 50, I wear long underwear, and my brother jokes that I should just strap a space heater to myself. I'm all about the artificial sources of heat.
S'mores Bars...amazing.
Off to vote for you now. :)
Emily - how do I love you! Fabulous recipes & stellar photography. i love sharing your recipes on my FB page. They always get comments. Happy weekend and happy baking xx
ReplyDeleteOh, yum.
ReplyDeleteI do declare that I'll need to make these ASAP.
OO these look yummy--s'mores make me think of summer, which I desperately need right about now! I once read that if you low on iron it can contribute to being cold, because I always used to be but now I take folic acid and I rarely get freezing anymore. Who knows! :-)
ReplyDeleteThose look amazing! You always create the best treats!
ReplyDeleteI eat those darn gummy vitamins like candy too!!
ReplyDeleteMaybe you're not getting enough protein? I dunno? I think I read that somewhere.
Great bars though.
These look yummy!! I'm still thinking about your Oreo Cream cheese brownies that I saw last night. Unfortunately I have no Oreos in my house at the moment and I'm not going grocery shopping till Tuesday so . . .
ReplyDeleteVoted for you! Who can turn down mac and cheese balls?
Um, hello delicious! Those look spectacular, am going to make them for a cookie party coming up. Thanks so much for the great recipe and photos!
ReplyDeleteThese look fantastic! I love s'mores and cheesecake, so I bet I would love it!
ReplyDeletewow you really come out with the most delicious of recipes. these look amazing. :)
ReplyDeleteokay i can totally empathize with ALWAYS being cold. it's terrible! i was in cleveland the past few days and it was sickeningly cold. i was miserable!
ReplyDeletealso, i love LOVE love gummie vitamins :)
Oh my. I wish you hadn't invented that! I'm afraid I'm going to have to make them and then I will end up eating most of them myself!
ReplyDeleteThese look incredible. I love to see and try the recipes you have invented. You are amazingly talented! Best of luck on the appetizer contest!
ReplyDeleteI bought some of those gummie vitamins today, and was so excited about them even though they cost an arm and a leg! So I ate one, and it was good, and then came the taste it leaves in your mouth. Do you get that taste? It's weird, and I have to drink something afterwards to get it out! Hmm maybe it's just me.
ReplyDeleteI also am freezing all the time! I bought some really good socks called Smartwool and they are amazing at keeping my feet warm. You should try them!
You entered the contest I told you about!! I'm so excited, I hope you win! You would LOVE my friend Kelsy. You'll have to say hello from me if you win :) (I just voted for you, that recipe sounds Amazing. My husband was reading over my shoulder and his drool fell into my lap.)
ReplyDeleteyumm i love smores!! great post girl!
ReplyDeleteGoodness me I wish I could eat these, they look divine x x
ReplyDeletei, too, am always cold. ny is clearly not where i need to reside. great bars, of course--anything topped with toasted marshmallow is bound to strike a chord with me.
ReplyDeleteand by the way, my little brother (he's 24) asked for an old-man hat for christmas. i guess he knows where to turn for style guidance. :)
Oh man, I'm not on facebook and can't vote :(
ReplyDeleteGorgeous pictures of your S'mores bars! Those marshmallows on top look so good, although I'm sure I'd burn them in the broiler if I tried to make them... :)
Okay I voted for you. I wonder if I can vote with both my FB and my MySpace accounts. They look aretery-cloggingly delicious.
ReplyDeleteThis cheesecake looks pretty delicious too. I love s'mores flavored stuff.
My grandfather had a plaid flannel shirt. It shrank in the wash too much, so he gave it to me. 15+ years after his death I still have it.
I'm just like you...I'm always cold! Since I grew up in the Phoenix area, I usually blame it on that...but I think it's also bad circulation, which I don't get cause I'm active. I'd take a summer day in Phoenix over a cold weather, anytime! S'mores cheesecake? Oh my!
ReplyDeleteLove the cleanness of the squares you've cut!
ReplyDeleteI know what you mean about being cold - I'm always the cold one!
I "starred" you and posted to my Facebook page. Those little bites look really, really yummy. I love white cheddar in macaroni, in fact the year I won the grand prize at Tillamook it was with a white cheddar macaroni. Hope you win!
ReplyDeleteThe s'mores bars look very decadent, too.:o)
Oh, and your pictures are amazing!
ReplyDeleteYum! I should never come here when I'm so hungry.
ReplyDeleteLOVE these bars!!! They look perfectly creamy and delicious.
ReplyDeleteAre you baking up things just for my liking!?!?! This is right up my alley! YUM!
ReplyDeleteYou never cease to amaze with your beautiful photos and wonderful recipes. Thanks girl!
ReplyDeleteThese sound AMAZING. Why have I never paired marshmallow creme with cheesecake before?
ReplyDeleteOh, and I'm always cold. Living in CA for seven years completely spoiled me, and now anything below 60F is cold.
Every time I read "recipe by me" I am just amazed. I couldn't even begin to put together my own recipe. Those bars look wonderful. I love the addition of the marshmallow creme...I'm addicted to that!!! I would love to try that recipe...
ReplyDeleteThanks everyone! Thanks for the votes, too. I don't think I'll win, but ah well.
ReplyDeleteMona, it really does! I wish I could put browned butter in everything.
Valli, I think I might get him some flannel jammies... :)
Veggiegirl, oh my! You poor thing!

These bars look amazing! And of course I will vote for your recipe - like you say, it can't hurt.
ReplyDeleteThese look almost too good to eat.
ReplyDeleteGenius Em!! Anything that includes chocolate and cheesecake is a winner to me!!
ReplyDelete~Justine
Yummy, those are beautiful. I love the drizzled chocolate on the top. Nice touch!
ReplyDeleteI've made a s'mores cheesecake but not bars. The cheesecake was really good but I'm digging your bars. Did I read marshmallow fluff in the filling? Oh, yeah!
ReplyDelete~ingrid
