Disney Recipe: Make These “Up” Inspired S’mores for Movie Night

From Mickey beignets to Totchos, there’s no shortage of fun new Disney recipes to whip up in your kitchen. And now, Disney has released the recipe for a fun twist on s’mores that’s almost (keyword: almost) too cute to eat!

While you may be spending more time at home these days, adventure is out there even in your kitchen with these Up-inspired s’mores from Disney Family.

These sweet treats mimic the look of the iconic My Adventure Book from Up, and they’re pretty much the ideal thing to make before having a fun Disney+ movie night at home.

Ingredients:

  • 12 large, rectangular graham crackers
  • 1-2 tsp vegetable oil (optional)
  • Your favorite homemade marshmallow recipe
  • 6 peanut butter candy melts
  • 1 Tbsp each of purple, red, blue, and white icing
  • 12 oz. of chocolate bar or chocolate candy coating, melted
  • Red fruit leather or fruit tape
  • ¼ cup powdered sugar
  • 2 Tbsp each of tan, yellow, orange, and black icing
  • 7 piping bags fitted with #1 or #2 tips (for each of the colored icings), 1 piping bag fitted with #44 tip (for the white icing), toothpicks

Directions:

  • Make the covers. Using a serrated knife, cut 2 inches off the length of each graham cracker. The remaining cracker should be 2 x 3 inches. Dip each cracker in melted chocolate, thinning the chocolate with oil if needed. Allow to set.
  • Create the binding. To create the book binding, cut out a 2 x ½-inch strip of red fruit leather. Use a dab of melted chocolate to attach this on the left side of each “book cover” cracker.
  • Make the marshmallows. Make the marshmallows according to your favorite recipe. Pour the marshmallow mixture into a 9 x 13-inch pan heavily dusted with powdered sugar. Fill the pan evenly to a depth of ½ inch. Allow to set. Use a long, thin knife brushed with oil to cut out 6 rectangles of marshmallow, each measuring 2 x 3 inches.
  • Decorate with details. Use the tan colored icing to draw square and circular borders on each “book cover.” Flat side facing up, attach a peanut butter candy melt chip under the text area. Use black icing and a toothpick to lightly draw the shape of North and South America. Write “My Adventure Book” with colored icing fitted into piping bags. Pipe a black icing ribbon tie atop the red fruit leather “binding.” To finish, pipe a thick line of white icing “tape” on the top left side of the globe.
  • Enjoy your s’mores! Place a cut marshmallow in between one “book cover” graham cracker and one plain, chocolate-dipped graham cracker. You can toast the marshmallows or just enjoy them plain.

After you make these decorative s’mores, make sure you take a few photos for your personal Adventure Book! And if you’re feeling inspired, then you can try your hand at more s’mores-inspired recipes like these Mickey S’mores Cupcakes and the S’mores Bake from the now-defunct Big Thunder Ranch Barbecue in Disneyland.

Just make sure no matter what s’mores recipe you make, that you remember to have fun!

Spotted: Baby Yoda Plush Reappears In Disney Springs!

If there is a Baby Yoda plush left on this planet, we WILL find it.

Baby Yoda Plush

This adorable plush of The Child from The Mandalorian popped up at the recently reopened World of Disney, but sold out in a flash. So we headed BACK to Disney Springs seeking an (adorable) bounty.

We made our way switfty to World of Disney, and much to our surprise — there was no wait! We waltzed on in and — what to our wondering eyes should appear, but a miniature creature STACKED with a bunch of his pals.

Baby Yoda Plush

This layout reminded us a bit of the Little Green Men waiting for THE CLAW in Toy Story. But this little green dude is waiting for a new home with that precious little smirk. If history repeats itself, these little plushes may not stick around for long. So if you’re on the [bounty] hunt in Disney Springs, now is your chance!

Luckily, Disney has you covered with a wickedly evil new outfit available online: a Maleficent Dress! We’ve previously spotted Hocus Pocus dresses and Darth Vader dresses around the parks, so it’s about time another one of our favorite Disney villains gets her own dress.

The Maleficent Dress features the Sleeping Beauty antagonist’s signature purple shade. Maleficent herself appears on the front of the skirt, engulfed in green flames and briars.

Lucasfilm Reveals Freaky Original Concept Art for “Baby Yoda” in The Mandalorian

Lucasfilm Reveals Freaky Original Concept Art for “Baby Yoda” in The Mandalorian. In the latest episode of Disney Gallery: The Mandalorian Lucasfilm and Disney revealed some of the original concept art for the internet sensation, The Child, aka Baby Yoda. The team received a ton of drawings and renderings for the character but ultimately chose a design based off Chris Alzmann’s now iconic character design.

The production team also knew they wanted to use the tried and true method at Lucasfilm of using puppetry and mechanics for realism rather than a CGI version of the character. One of the series stars, Werner Herzog was adamant the production team should ditch the idea of a contingency plan revolving around a CGI rendering of “The Child” for the series.

“It was a phenomenal achievement of sculpting mechanically. When I saw this, it was so convincing, it was so unique,” Herzog shared with The New York Times. “And then the producers talked about, ‘Shouldn’t we have a fallback version with green screen and have it be completely digitally created?’ I said to them: It would be cowardly. You are the trailblazers. Show the world what you can do.”

We got lots and lots of drawings,” shared show runner and creator Jon Favreau in the latest episode of Disney Gallery: The Mandalorian. “Some of them were too cute, some of them were too ugly, some of them were the wrong proportions.”

“It was finally that one image that Chris Alzmann did that had him wrapped up in what looked like a piece of a flight jacket or something,” the creator confessed. “And his eyes were a little weird, and he looked a little out of it, there was something a little off with it. But we found it charming, and that became the rallying image that we said, ‘This is good.’”

It did not take long after the premiere of the first episode of The Mandalorian in November 2019 for the world to fall in love with Baby Yoda. Favreau previously credited Disney and Lucasfilm with the success of the series after they refrained from spoiling the characters appearance with the release of themed merchandise until after the series premiere, a very uncommon practice now a days.

Do you agree keeping “Baby Yoda” secret was a good idea? Were you surprised by the reveal at the end of Episode 1? Have you been enjoying The Mandalorian on Disney+? What do you think of the original concept art? We would love to hear your thoughts in the comments.
