Mexican Dark Chocolate S’mores Bars

mexican dark chocolate s'mores bars // my bacon-wrapped lifePeach cobbler, giant ice cream cones, blueberry pie – summer has no shortage of incredible desserts. It’s the time of year for everything fruity and streusel-y and cool and creamy and, perhaps best of all, EASY – and there ain’t nothin’ wrong with any of that. But I think if we had to choose a winner, the one definitive quintessential summer dessert, it just has to be s’mores.

S’mores are the ultimate warm-weather treat – so simple, but so satisfyingly ooey-gooey and chocolate-y. They just scream summer to me, and I couldn’t let a summer go by without paying tribute to the ultimate summer indulgence. I would never do that to you!

Salted Caramel Brownies

Salted Caramel Brownies | My Bacon-Wrapped Life

I have an incredible salty-sweet treat for you to whip up for your sweetie this Valentine’s Day.

Or you know, your Galentine’s Day/Palentine’s Day/average Tuesday. Basically whenever.

Ironically, my “sweetie” is not that into these. He is anti-sweet and salty. I’m still convinced something happened to his taste buds as a child because this just does not make any sense to me, but whatever. More for me. Basically what I’m saying is that I made these as an early Valentine’s Day gift to myself. Because LOVE YO SELF, amiright?
