Campfire Tarts And My First Giveaway!
This is one of those genius inventions that's like, man why didn't I think of that =)? Nic (creator of Tarts On Fire) you have created something phenomenal! Every single person that tried these agreed that not only were they the new "it" thing but the end result of what they can cook is undeniably delicious (and I want to add, normally I'm all about made from scratch. I did not make one thing from scratch with these. I used store bought refrigerated biscuits, canned pie filling and canned whipped cream and these campfire cups left me speechless - for a moment, and then I couldn't stop talking about how awesome and delicious they were =).
You get a perfectly toasted biscuit tart that's amazingly tender and fully cooked through (I questioned whether they might be soggy inside but they had no sogginess whatsoever), then you fill it with you favorite fruit pie filling and finish it off with sweetened whipped cream. Yes, they're melt-in-your-mouth fantastic! Their deliciousness also got me thinking of everything you could fill them with. You could do the traditional fruit pie filling or pudding, or you could change it up and fill them with sweetened fresh fruit (which I did with one), a cream pie filling, ice cream - with all the toppings of course, pastry cream, or make them S'mores tarts and fill them with toasted marshmallows and chocolate sauce. You could make a savory option and fill them with soup, chili, chicken pot pie filling, cheesy scrambled eggs, or you could make taco bowls and fill them with taco filling. Really the possibilities of what you can create with these are endless.
I wouldn't go on and on raving about a product I didn't absolutely love but I'm telling you I LOVE these Tarts On Fire sticks. And everyone is going to love me when I bring them to the campfire cookouts =). Adults and kids alike had so much fun preparing and enjoying the campfire tarts. I mean really, when was the last time your campfire cookware consisted of something other than a roasting stick, a pot or of roll of aluminum foil? These are new, they're fun, they're easy, and yes like I mentioned before I think these will be the new "it" cookware product. I hope they can keep up with the demand. These are not yet in stores so I'd recommend buying them before you have to pay the marked up store fees.
As the holidays come near I'm always drawing blanks for an exciting gift to give to a friend or loved one. Well, not this year. These would make the perfect birthday or Christmas gift for men or women alike.
Take these camping or out to the backyard fire pit and I can basically guarantee they will be a total hit, and like me you will instantly become a huge fan. Entertain in style with these new Tarts on Fire Sticks!
...they are like a piece of art.

Campfire Tarts
Yields 10 cups
1 package refrigerated, small biscuits (I used Pillsburry Jr. Grands)
2 (21 oz) cans pie filling such as apple, blueberry, raspberry, cherry
canned whipped cream
Special equipment: Tarts On Fire Sticks
Directions:
Evenly wrap and mold 1 biscuit dough around the outside of the stainless steel cup of each Tarts On Fire Stick (no greasing necessary). Roast over an open flame, rotating frequently until golden brown (don't hold them over a smokey area or directly in the fire), about 1 - 2 minutes. Remove toasted biscuit from stainless steel cup (it should easily glide right off), fill with your favorite pie filling and top with whipped cream. Easy as that! Now devour =).
