Did you miss it? Today was National Fluffernutter Day! Though this snack/treat is over 100 years old, we've never tasted it. Today was the day to try something new and experiment in the kitchen!
After a little research and laughs at old commercials, our first taste of Fluffernutter was the original, plain white bread spread with peanut butter and marshmallow creme.
This was everyone's least favorite. In fact, we didn't really like it. It was much too sweet.
Next we tried New York's Bouchon Bakery's version, grilled white bread spread with peanut butter and marshmallow cream, with banana slices sandwiched inside.
Um. Yum. Like, really.
Picking up the ingredients at the grocery store, we had predetermined that Nutella might make a tasty addition to the Fluffernutter, so our next sandwich was our creation of the three spreads. And because we hadn't really cared for the non-grilled Fluffernutter, we grilled this one.
Great gobs of gorgeous, gooey goodness! We are ON to something here!
But the bananas had added some substance to the other sandwich that was lacking in this one. So...
Shazam! Peanut butter, marshmallow cream, Nutella, and bananas, grilled on white bread is AMBROSIA!
And "Fluffernutter" is just fun to say.
