Dessert tacos! Something I have had soo much fun creating, and
                                        even more fun serving. These crunchy, sweet, yet fresh desserts
                                        offer an exciting presentation, best of all...you get to eat with your
                                      hands!

                                           I had so much fun creating these fathers day treats.
                                            The first batch was a mix of chocolate and plain
                                            rice krispies, dusted with cocoa powder and
                                          powdered sugar. Oddly enough strawberry
                                        rice krispies have been on the brain lately, but
                                       when I got to the grocery store they did not have any
                                      flavored marshmallows. Time to think quick...fresh
                                       strawberries?? maybe. I could cook them down with
                                       sugar and a little lemon juice then gently fold them into
                                      the melted marshmallow. I looked over and saw gelatin packs,
                                    right next to the marshmallows. So many flavors to
                                     choose from! Could it work?? Hey, with home-cooking
                                     anything is worth trying once! I picked out strawberry. After
                                    completing the first batch, I started melting butter and marshmallows
                                     for a second time, this time sprinkling a third of the strawberry gelatin
                                   pouch into the marshmallow/butter mixture stirring until well
                                       combined. The color was awesome and it smelled amazing.

                                    They worked out great and the possibilities are endless. I am looking
                                    forward to trying out all different flavors. Lime, orange, cherry.....
                                   Hope someone out there tries them with me! Happy Fathers Day weekend!

                                            When I am baking nothing else matters. I have three

                                              goals when I create food;  1. Presentation is huge,

                                             create an art piece. 2. It better taste amazing! 

                                             make the mouth wonder, layer flavors. 3. Have

                                             fun! If you arent having fun get the heck out of the

                                            kitchen!
