Leftovers were put to good use when I was a little girl. If my mom made a pie, the scrap dough would transform into tarts sprinkled with cinnamon and sugar. When she made cakes, any icing would find itself sandwiched between saltine crackers and frozen for a sweet and salty treat. I made something similar for the kids yesterday, but instead of saltine crackers I used graham crackers and added some marshmallow cream: instant s'mores! The kids loved them, but I think I like the original version better.
What special treats do you remember from your childhood?
