NEW YORK, NY (June 7, 2022) — With summer barbecues, backyard fire pits, and beach bonfires the seasonal activity of choice, Venchi has curated a recipe based on an American classic: S'mores Suprema XV (di Frutta) Venchi.
Developed for Venchi by Food Creative Victoria Granof, who recently styled the cover feature on ice cream for Food & Wine Magazine's June issue, these elevated s'mores are easy to make and add an elegant touch to summertime dining. There are two versions: raspberry pistachio and pineapple coconut.
S’mores Suprema XV (di Frutta) Venchi
Makes 6
For the Raspberry Pistachio version
Ingredients:
12 Tbsp. Venchi Milk or Dark Chocolate Suprema
12 vanilla or chocolate pizzelle
1 pint fresh raspberries
3 Tbsp. chopped pistachios
6 extra large marshmallows
Preparation:
- Spread each pizelle with one tablespoon of Suprema.
- Divide the raspberries between 6 of the pizelle. Sprinkle with the pistachios.
- Now toast the marshmallow either on a skewer over an open flame or under the broiler, until nicely browned. Place one marshmallow atop each raspberry-covered pizzelle and immediately cover with the remaining pizelle, chocolate side down.
- Press gently and eat immediately!
For the Pineapple Coconut version
Ingredients:
12 Tbsp. Venchi Milk or Dark Chocolate Suprema XV
12 Coconut pizzelle
3 – ½” thick crosswise slices fresh pineapple
3 Tbsp. brown sugar
6 extra large marshmallows
Preparation:
- Cut the pineapple slices into half rounds. Sprinkle brown sugar on both sides of the pineapple and set aside.
- Spread each pizelle with one tablespoon of Suprema.
- For the pineapple, you can grill it over hot coals, turning once until caramelized; or thread it onto a skewer and roast it over an open flame, or broil it in the oven. As soon as it is caramelized, divide it between 6 of the pizelle, atop the chocolate.
- Now toast the marshmallow either on a skewer over an open flame or under the broiler, until nicely browned. Place one marshmallow atop each pineapple slice and immediately cover with the remaining pizelle, chocolate side down.
- Press gently and eat immediately!
