It's Bonfire Night!

It’s Bonfire Night here in the UK! The evenings are getting darker earlier, the warmer clothing is coming out of hibernation and the drinks are becoming hotter. Just 7 weeks to go until Christmas…

At the Shortbread Company, Bonfire Night is all about the tasty treats. Hot chocolates and marshmallows, candy floss from the travelling fayre, but most importantly… Shortbread s’mores!

It’s simple - see our recipe below…

All you need: 

• Your favourite flavour shortbread
• Marshmallows 
• Wooden or metal skewers
• A campfire or bonfire

When your bonfire is hot and crackling, skewer one or two marshmallows and toast them over the flame. When the marshmallow begins to brown, carefully take it off the skewer and squash it between two shortbread biscuits. For an extra indulgent treat, spread some chocolate spread on one side of the shortbread. Watch the marshmallow melt the chocolate into a warm, sticky mess! 

Which flavour shortbread do you use? We think our Terry’s Chocolate Orange and Salted Caramel go great with marshmallows!
