[…] Strawberry Shortcake S’mores […]
You guys it’s becoming that time of the year. That time of the year for s’mores! I love it. And I love this recipe even more, because it combines my love of s’mores with my love of strawberry shortcake! Read on to check out my recipe for these quick strawberry shortcake s’mores.

So this one time I bought an entire case of strawberries from Costco and finished it by myself. And by “this one time,” I mean that was literally last summer. The whole case. In other words, four times the amount of the regular strawberry containers at the local grocery store. Eeek!
It was only slightly embarrassing at the time, and maybe a little more so now that I’ve shared it with all of you guys, but I was on a huge strawberry shortcake kick. Like, that was my snack. Every day after work. For… two weeks?
But I mean, you just can’t beat strawberry shortcake! Fresh tart strawberries atop a fluffy slice of angel food cake and a huge dollop of homemade whipped cream on top. Because homemade is the way to go, amiright? The only way to top that is with this recipe, which combines my favorite strawberry shortcake with s’mores. Yes!
Now, I could eat this every day for a snack. But I’d probably have diabetes in about… a week. The ooey gooey stickiness of the marshmallows and rich chocolate are the perfect accompaniment to the traditional strawberry shortcake, and it comes together in just 10 minutes, making it a perfect weeknight dessert if you’re craving something sweet but just don’t have the time to bake. Like me, every night!

What an interesting mash-up. I like the combination of flavors, and I also like that you can do it in a panini press – not that I wouldn’t rather roast the marshmallows over a campfire, but it’s not quite warm enough for that where I live.
Delicious, and I love your pics. They’re delicious too!
Thank you so much for your lovely comment! 🙂 I hope you enjoy the s’mores!
