When kids gather at our home, they expect s'mores. Unfortunately, the weather forecast said to expect rain and misery. Rain and s'mores don't play along nicely, so I tried to be prepared. I had a back-up plan.
Dessert Nachos.
OH, YES. I DID.
These were crazy easy, but SO good.
SO SO SOOOOOO GOOD.
I'm planning to make another batch tomorrow when I can hide in a closet and not share them with anyone else. You just watch me.
I started with an oven-safe pan and some pita chips. I used Stacy's Simply Naked Pita Chips, to be exact. I've heard of other people using the cinnamon-flavored ones in recipes similar to this one, but I wanted the plain ones that have just a bit of salt on them to counter the sweet that I was planning to pile on top.
That "sweet" included a bunch of mini marshmallows, a few handfuls of chocolate chips, and some Reese's Pieces.
Later batches went to a whole other level when I added caramel sauce, chocolate sauce, and whatever else called my name when I went hunting for sweets in the pantry.
Mmmhmmmmmm.
I threw them in the oven for ten minutes at 350 degrees, and all was right with the world. Kids were happy and not complaining that s'mores didn't happen and adults were happy because OMG SO GOOD.
Seriously.
Make some.
