That was funny.
0:01
>> Today we are making s'mores cake mix
0:04
cookies. And it's as easy as a box cake
0:09
mix and simple s'mores ingredients.
0:12
Rihanna, what do we got?
0:13
>> Got graham crackers, chocolate, and
0:15
marshmallows. The jumbo kind.
0:17
>> All right, we're going to make s'mores
0:19
cake mix cookies. The first thing we got
0:22
to do is introduce this girl right here.
0:25
>> Hello.
0:26
>> All right, this is Rihanna. That's our
0:30
daughter now. She moved out about two
0:33
years ago and having the time of your
0:36
life.
0:37
>> Oh man, definitely knowing what life is
0:39
about.
0:41
>> Those bills are hitting heavy.
0:43
>> Yes, very heavy. Oh my gosh.
0:46
All right. But she's got Chris. And
0:50
Chris is her boyfriend of how long?
0:53
>> Uh, a little over a year now.
0:54
>> A little over a year now. So, they come
0:56
over together and visit us every now and
0:58
then. Not nearly enough, but that's
1:01
okay. So, we're going to get started
1:03
making. First thing we're going to do is
1:06
get the cookie dough ready. Y'all, look
1:08
at that. We're going to make it easy
1:10
with box cake mix.
1:12
Rihanna is anyway. Yeah. All right.
1:15
We're going to clear this stuff and get
1:17
stuff ready for the cookie dough.
1:20
Now, we're going to be making chocolate
1:22
chip cookies for this to lay over the
1:26
s'mores part of this recipe. You can use
1:29
any recipe that you want. If you want to
1:31
use the devil's food cake mix or you can
1:34
just use chocolate cake mix, whatever
1:36
you want. I'm using the butter golden
1:39
one because we're going to add some
1:42
chocolate chips. So Rian's going to
1:44
empty that into a large bowl
1:49
and then move on that move that on down.
1:53
And then I'm going to add in 7 oz of
1:58
chocolate. You know what? I'm a little
2:00
head of the gang here first off because
2:02
we don't want to add the chocolate chips
2:04
before we beat everything in. So, to
2:06
that we're going to add in just a few
2:09
simple ingredients, which is 1/3 cup of
2:12
melted butter.
2:16
And then we're going to add in 4 oz of
2:19
softened cream cheese.
2:23
There we go. And we're going to cream.
2:28
Let's see. Oh,
2:31
where am I today? She came over here
2:33
with some drama and it got me all like
2:35
woohoo all over the place. So,
2:38
one egg.
2:41
I told her she should have her own
2:42
channel.
2:44
Show us what she's cooking over at her
2:46
place. Yeah.
2:48
What do you think?
2:51
I'm I might do it.
2:52
>> Rihanna's kitchen. I think she should.
2:55
She has Chris over there a lot and they
2:56
make food together. So, I think we
2:58
should know what they're cooking over
3:00
there.
3:01
>> All right. We're going to grab an
3:02
electric hand mixer. We're going to
3:04
blend this all together until we get a
3:06
nice smooth consistent batter. Ah, what
3:09
happened, Rihanna?
3:10
>> I didn't put them in all the way.
3:13
All right, let's blend it together.
3:18
All right, what cake mix are y'all
3:19
using?
3:21
We're going to do the chocolate chips,
3:22
though. That's going to be fun, right?
3:24
>> That will be fun, y'all. It's that time
3:27
of year. It's summertime and it's time
3:30
to bring out the s'mores recipes, right?
3:33
>> Yeah, absolutely. Oh my gosh,
3:35
>> she loves s'mores. So does my husband.
3:38
Y'all know that Thomas loves his graham
3:40
crackers. All right, what do we got
3:42
going on in there? That looks good.
3:44
>> All right, let's get a spatula. We're
3:47
going to pull down the sides.
3:51
Make sure everything is incorporated
3:52
well.
3:54
Y'all, you can make cookies out of a
3:57
boxed cake mix, which we're going to
3:58
prove right now. But I've proven it to
4:01
y'all time and time again on my channel
4:03
earlier in the days few years ago
4:06
anyway. And go back and look at all my
4:09
cake mix cookies. Gosh, there were so
4:12
many of them. And I teach you how to
4:15
make them all. So, go check it out. You
4:17
can go to my recipe blog also. What is
4:19
it?
4:20
>> Katherine's Plates.com.
4:22
>> Yep.
4:23
How many boxes of cake mix do you have
4:24
at your house to make cookies with?
4:26
Rihanna, I
4:26
>> actually have a lot of cake mix at the
4:28
my house. I like dessert. So,
4:31
>> all right, we're done.
4:33
>> Yeah.
4:35
>> I'm not going to tell you how old she
4:36
is, but she's in her 20s. Her early 20s
4:39
anyway.
4:41
>> Yeah, this times I forget how old I am,
4:43
so it doesn't even
4:45
>> Sometimes I forget, too. I keep thinking
4:46
she's a child. She's like, "Mom, I'm not
4:49
a child." Like, well, you act like it
4:51
sometimes.
4:52
>> Hey. Hey. Yay. Say young at the heart.
4:54
That's what my husband says anyway. You
4:56
act like a child. All right. Look at
4:58
that. That's what you want. A nice
5:00
creamy consistency.
5:03
Now, we're going to fold in the
5:05
chocolate chips.
5:07
We have dark chocolate chips that we're
5:09
going to be using and 7 oz. We're going
5:13
to put them in.
5:16
All right. So, you want to fold it in
5:18
with a spatula and get a good mix on
5:21
that. Let me show you what it looks
5:22
like.
5:25
What do y'all think? More chips. More
5:27
chips.
5:28
>> Yeah, absolutely.
5:28
>> Like Yes. More chips.
5:31
All right. There we go.
5:34
Does that look good? Mhm.
5:37
This is already smelling so good. Does,
5:40
doesn't it? All right. What are we
5:42
doing? We just put the cookie dough in
5:44
the fridge for a minute to chill and
5:45
then we're going to move on to the next
5:47
step. All right. And that's just
5:48
building them up. You ready?
5:50
>> I am. I'm really excited.
5:51
>> She is. I think we all are. So, we got a
5:56
large deep sheet pan here and we're
5:58
going to start building up our s'mores.
6:02
>> So, what you want to do is make sure you
6:03
have some parchment paper. Want to pull
6:05
out a sheet?
6:06
>> I do.
6:08
>> There we go. And lay it in there nice
6:11
and neat like that. Don't hit your
6:12
daughter in the head with the box.
6:14
>> Yeah, please don't. Now, we're going to
6:16
get the graham crackers.
6:20
One of the three, right? Wow. All right,
6:22
open them up. Opening them up.
6:24
>> Yep. That's going to be the bottom of
6:27
our cookie, y'all. This is going to be
6:30
fun.
6:31
All right.
6:36
Why can't I get her over here soon?
6:40
Now, Rihanna, where do you work? I work
6:43
at a bank uh as in a loan resolutions
6:46
department.
6:48
She said loan and resolutions. I don't
6:50
know if y'all heard that.
6:51
>> Oh, probably not. Sorry.
6:54
>> She has a lot of fun.
6:56
>> I do. And some sometimes it's really
6:58
interesting talking to these people.
7:01
>> Do y'all know anything about that
7:03
customer service, right?
7:05
>> Always have to have a nice day.
7:09
>> With that cute smile,
7:11
who's gonna have a bad day? No one.
7:15
All right, we have the these are the
7:18
sheets of the graham crackers that look
7:20
like this. We're going to break them in
7:21
half just down in the center there to
7:24
make halves like that. And then we're
7:27
going to lay them on our sheet pan.
7:30
We're going to give these room to grow.
7:32
All right, we're going to have cookies
7:33
on here, so we need them to grow.
7:38
There we go.
7:41
The next step is the chocolate bar. My
7:43
favorite part.
7:44
>> We got to have melty chocolate on this.
7:46
Right. Right on those graham crackers.
7:54
So, you're going to Now, these are just
7:56
regular Hershey candy bars.
8:00
There we go.
8:02
Now, this is the special chocolate, but
8:04
you can get the milk chocolate if you
8:05
want. And then we're going to break off
8:08
two pieces. I think two pieces. Let's
8:11
see what it looks like.
8:15
two pieces.
8:15
>> Well, yep, two pieces that'll melt. So,
8:20
we're going to do that on each one. I'm
8:21
going to bring you up here so you can
8:22
see what she's doing. All right. Just
8:25
like that. Let me show y'all the two.
8:28
They're just two pieces right here.
8:33
Here we go. Rihanna's doing a fine job.
8:37
All right. We got our large
8:38
marshmallows. We did freeze them cuz
8:41
they tend to melt better and not faster
8:45
while you're waiting for your cookies to
8:46
cook. Bake.
8:48
What is it? Bake.
8:54
>> There's a jumbo.
8:55
>> They're jumbos. I'm going to put right
8:58
on top.
8:58
>> All right. We're going to show you what
9:00
that looks like, too. All right. You're
9:02
just going to place them right on top of
9:03
the chocolate.
9:05
Way to go, Rihanna. Yeah.
9:08
Got the cookie dough out of the
9:09
refrigerator. We've got our hands
9:11
freshly washed,
9:13
>> squeaky clean.
9:13
>> Sorry you didn't get to hear the water
9:15
running and us do that, but we did.
9:17
>> All right, we're going to take a big
9:19
scoop, y'all. This is like an ice cream
9:21
scoop almost. It's a big cookie scoop
9:23
there. We're going to run it through the
9:26
batter. She's going to put it in her
9:28
hand
9:30
and then we're going to form it
9:33
into like a big cookie like that. Keep
9:37
going.
9:39
>> Keep going.
9:39
>> What you want to have to do is have it
9:42
big enough that it'll fall over the
9:44
marshmallow.
9:46
>> Yeah.
9:46
>> Go cookie.
9:47
>> You think that'll work?
9:48
>> All right. Put it on there. Drape it on.
9:51
Then just squish it all together up to
9:54
the the cookie. I should say you want to
9:57
drape it over and have it hit the graham
9:59
cracker and kind of push it in there.
10:02
That way you don't lose too much of that
10:04
marshmallow. And
10:06
>> that is it right there.
10:07
>> There.
10:08
>> Look at that. You got it all pushed up
10:10
against the cookie.
10:10
>> I do. I have.
10:11
>> All right. We're going to bring you up
10:13
here and give you a closeup of that.
10:16
Now, the best trick for this is after
10:17
you do one, I would wash your hands
10:19
again to do the next one so you don't
10:21
have a big gummy dough mix on your
10:23
hands. All right, we got our oven
10:26
preheated at 350°.
10:29
We're going to bake these for about 10
10:30
to 13 minutes.
10:33
We want those cookies to look what? Nice
10:35
and gold going brown around the edges.
10:38
>> And crispy, too. A little bit little bit
10:40
of crispy going on. And we want those
10:41
marshmallows to be nice and gooey.
10:44
>> Gooey. All right, we'll be back so we
10:46
can show you the finished product. I
10:47
know y'all are like, "Okay, we want to
10:49
see these."
10:50
>> I can't wait to see these. These look
10:52
amazing.
10:53
>> Yeah. All right, we'll be back.
10:55
Here they are.
10:58
Woo! Look at these. Now, I have to say
11:01
it took an additional 10 minutes for us
11:04
to get this nice little crispy looking
11:07
golden brown cookie. Okay. And those
11:09
marshmallows just poof right out of that
11:11
cookie. Oh my goodness. I'm going to
11:13
have Rihanna pick one up for you. And
11:15
I'm going to bring you up here so you
11:16
all can see that happen.
11:18
>> It smells amazing, too.
11:20
>> Yes, it does.
11:22
>> Look at these, you guys. I let them rest
11:25
on the pan until they were pretty much
11:27
cooled down. You want to with that
11:29
marshmallow. Look at that burst of
11:31
goodness there. We're going to put this
11:34
on a plate. We're going to give it a try
11:36
for you. Look at that.
11:42
Oh, right through that marshmallow.
11:46
There we go, you guys. Look at that.
11:48
There's that graham cracker. Oh my
11:50
goodness.
11:51
>> We didn't have a cheese pull. We had a
11:53
marshmallow pull.
11:55
>> We're going to break this into little
11:56
pieces and give it a try for you.
12:00
We're going to grab a fork for this one.
12:03
>> Not a knife, Rihanna. A fork.
12:07
>> Kids these days.
12:10
All right.
12:14
Let's try that cookie.
12:16
I'll try the cookie. I know she's going
12:18
to try that whole part there. Huh? Mhm.
12:31
You know, four though. This is going to
12:34
go for it.
12:34
>> Yeah, might as well.
12:37
>> Woo!
12:39
>> That's what I'm talking about.
12:40
>> That cookie is good.
12:43
Don't underestimate the box of a box
12:46
cake mix.
12:49
>> Mhm.
12:50
Is that good?
12:51
>> Mhm.
12:55
All right, you guys.
12:57
I'll give Rihanna's thumb over here. My
12:59
thumb here. Thumbs up on this one. What
13:02
do y'all think?
13:04
Take that somewhere. A barbecue. Make
13:08
them at your house. It made six large
13:11
cookies. So, there you go. All right,
13:15
y'all. Say hello to Rihanna. That's R I
13:19
A N A. We try to keep her name very
13:23
simple.
13:24
>> Yeah.
13:25
>> But it packs a punch.
13:26
>> Yes, it does.
13:27
>> She sure does.
13:28
>> Hey.
13:30
>> All right, you guys. We will see y'all
13:32
on the next episode. Bye.
13:34
>> Bye.
13:34
>> Bye.
