St. Patricks Day Marshmallow Crakers

This isn't something that involves frosting and green food dye...this is AUTHENTIC. No kidding, I found it in a book from our library, "A Pot O' Gold- A treasury of Irish Stories, Poetry, Folklore and (of Course) Blarney". Oh my goodness, marshamllow and buttery crisp graham crackers.... who knew that the irish even knew what marshmallows were??!

"Cream crackers were invented in Ireland, but graham crackers or another plain, unsalty cracker will do."

Take:
1 graham cracker
1 Marshmallow

a blob of butter

1 almond


Put the marshmallow on top of each cracker. Put a small piece of butter on each marshmallow, topped by an almond. Place on a pan and put under a broiler until the marshmallow has melted over all.

Oh yeah. I'm so there! Thanks for your authentic recipe. Since I don't have any green frosting on hand, this will make a happy replacement for a St. Patty's day treat!
