Gooey Gramwiches

Years ago, I used to make these gramwiches all the time. Every time, my ex-boyfriend, Kyle, would watch the marshmallow as it gooed out of the cracker when I took a bite. He would say, “You’re such a child,” with a smile on his face. He didn’t like marshmallows, but I know he wished he did because this quick treat always put a smile on my face.

  1. Step 1

    Place one graham cracker half on a microwave-safe plate. Put the marshmallow in the center of the cracker. Watching carefully, microwave it on low until the marshmallow expands by about one-third of its size, 10 to 15 seconds. Top the marshmallow with the remaining graham cracker half, smooshing it down gently. Serve immediately.
