Happy Fourth of July, Everyone. When I think of the 4th, I always think of fireworks, bonfires and S’mores! I seriously couldn’t help myself when I saw S’more Cupcakes! Wow! So many recipes and they all look so good! I made a couple. And then I knew…I had to come up with MY ultimate S’more Cupcakes.

to I found this little oddity of a recipe, Frozen Lemonade Pie, in my Mom’s recipe box after she passed away. I don’t remember my Mom ever making it but it was credited to my Aunt Mary; my Mom always wrote in the upper corner of every card where the recipe came from. I held that card, looking at the ingredients, puzzled (they are a little strange) and the memories started coming back.

For a while, Dulce de Leche was virtually unknown in much of the States until it became all the rage years ago. If you’ve never had it, Dulce de Leche is rich, spoonable caramelly goodness and you buy it, usually in a can. Dulce de Leche can be used in all kinds of ways, but here Dulce de Leche is spread on top of a cheesecake base for these delish Dulce de Leche Cheesecake Bars. Oh, yes, please! Finish these with a sprinkle of Fleur de Sel to add a bit of spark. Umhmm!
