Ghostbusters Pandan Slimer S’mores
If you ever see a bright green dessert in a Southeast Asian bakery, it’s usually pandan flavored. Pandan is a fragrant tropical plant that lends itself easily to both savory and sweet eats.
And that’s where Slimer comes in. I didn’t have food coloring on hand but I did have pandan extract! My pantry is very random. I realized that a touch of the extract would do the trick to make a lovely Slimer-y color.
The ideal pairing with a Slimer cookie? A Stay-Puft marshmallow! Campfire Marshmallows has released the cutest official themed bags to get ready for Ghostbusters: Afterlife and they’re perfect for s’mores.
To quote Ray, “I tried to think of the most harmless thing, something I loved from my childhood. Something that could never ever possibly destroy us.” I chose my li’l Slimer as the form of the destructor and was slayed by his cuteness but more importantly, he was delicious!
