Samoas Bomb Pie in-a-jar

I've been really, really excited to try this recipe.

I'm in love with making "Bomb" pies.

I'll give you a little back story, just for the hey of it:

Back in the day (and I mean when we could afford TV, pre-cross-country-move and pre-baby), my husband and I watched a lot of Food Network.

We loved that show, "The Best Thing I Ever Ate," where the celebs talk about their favorite foods.

Guy's favorite "Guilty Pleasure" was this piece of pie called "The Baltimore Bomb Pie."

It's pretty awesome-- you can see my version of the recipe here.

Since my first Bomb Pie, I've also done a pumpkin  bomb pie, and now a Samoas Bomb Pie.

Today's recipe is a little more unique than the others--

because I ran out of ingredients!

As you can imagine, I'm running a little short on Samoas at the end of this week. 

So instead of making a full pie, I made an individual portion in a jar.

Which is still pretty awesome, right?

I think this is one of the ultimate comfort foods-- warm, ooey-gooey... plus that certain intangible quality that just makes you breathe a sigh of relief at the end of your day.

mmmmm. Thank goodness for "bomb" pie.

(I'm providing a recipe for the full pie as well as the individual serving)
