Sweet French Hungarian Dessert

Well, onto dessert! We came back from the movie, our hearts nourished, but our bodies not. And what better to cap off a night like this than with an old french classic: s'mores! But these are s'mores the Meryl Streep & Amy Adams & Caitlin & Marcy way...

We started with some fine Hershey's milk chocolate (and all that other stuff you need for s'mores). We turned up the heat, threw it all together, and called it a night. But wait! That can't be all! What's a Meryl Streep & Amy Adams & Caitlin & Marcy dessert without our signature special ingredient: a sprinkle of paprika!


I know what you're thinking. Paprika on a dessert? We thought of that too. But we know our paprika. Sweet Hungarian paprika, an export from Hungary, is just what a plain old dessert needs to make it truly special. But we didn't have any sweet Hungarian paprika just in our cupboard!

It's a good thing we're such fine, resourceful ladies. If you're ever in a pinch like we found ourselves and need some Sweet Hungarian Paprika when you've only got Fancy, here's a life-saving tip: mix equal parts sugar and paprika and BAM! you've got yourself some sweeeet paprika. That's what we did, and I know it's rude to say yum at the dinner table, but YUM!
