I guess its time to stroke your ego, so I'll say I'm very proud of you, SAPF, for not eating the whole pan of brownies!
I'll probably have the Americans jumping all over me (as usual) saying "You don't know what a 'smore is??" Well, I don't, so someone tell me 'smore about them.

Hey, Howie, its not as though my life has been that sheltered when it comes to things like Chubby Hubby ice cream and 'Smores, otherwise I wouldn't be here in the first place!
I wonder how many Americans know what Treacle Pudding is (a favourite from my childhood in England) or Nanaimo Bars and Butter Tarts (Canadian delights to die for) OKAY, ENOUGH WITH THE FOOD PORN
I think I'm obsessing about that piece of I'm having tonight
Okay, I just remembered another favourite dessert from my childhood ... I have a recipe if anyone wants it

Reason: to add the "Spotted Dick"
Oh SAPF, you're incorrigible Next thing you'll be suggesting we eat Chubby Hubby with a little Spotted Dick. Thanks for the link, Sheila, henceforth I shall refer to that particular treat as "Spotted Richard"
Only 1/2hr until my piece of cake and I'm so giddy!! I've eaten very sparingly today and have 12 points left over...so if I have a glass of wine (2 points) that leaves me 10 points for cake, which will be a sizable chunk, right??

'Smores are quite lovely and I am happy to report I have evaded their gooey lure today. When I do have one (or four!), I make them in the microwave although they are better when made with toasted marshmallows: top 1/2 graham cracker with one large marshmallow, microwave 10 seconds. Top immediately with 1/4 milk chocolate bar and the other half of the graham cracker. Eat=MMM! (The directions on the hershey's package say use 1/2 of the chocolate bar but that throws off the chocolate/marshmallow ratio IMHO. And besides my way lowers the calories and fat content-LOL)
CAUTION: more FOOD PORN AHEAD...Has anyone else heard of B&J's Chunky Monkey ice cream? never have cared for Chubby Hubby, but I love Chunky Monkey. (banana flavored ice cream with walnuts and chunks of chocolate mixed in-mmm but OH! the Calories OH! the Fat!!)

OK, I give up, what is Treacle Pudding? I have heard about it before but have no clue what it is. As to the Nanaimo Bars and Butter Tarts, I have never heard of them please enlighten this American.
