S’MORES CUPS
I was at dinner with a bunch of food bloggers last month and we were discussing how we tend to get stuck in different phases when photographing our food. Sometimes we’ll go months only using the same white background for all our shots or use the same blue napkin under a plate. Just like Picasso had his blue period, painting essentially in only shades of blue and blue-green, all artists tend to stick with what is working for them for a period of time. Not that I’m Picasso,…but it’s comforting to know that these things trend in all people (even geniuses) and not just me.
People often wonder why every time I talk about my cookbook I close up like a clam and start rocking in the corner. Every time I see a picture from the cookbook I see chaos, panic, and stress. So I like to think of that as my “Frantic Period”. It all comes back to me. Setting the cookbook aside, it was a really tough time personally in my life and it just brings it all back. One day I would love to write another cookbook on my own schedule, with no deadlines. It’s done when it’s done. I’m pretty sure that only exists in a fictional world but it’s a nice thought.
Cookbook manuscripts are usually due 1-2 years before they hit the shelves. I made these S’mores Cups way back in 2013 and as my book was in the process of getting published (released September 2014), I started seeing other bloggers come out with versions of these and I was mortified that they would think I copied them. Ahhh!!
These are graham cracker cookie bites filled with marshmallow cream and chocolate. Really a bite of heaven!
