Typical munchy ingredients have never tasted better than in the following PTA-mom classic. In fact, it was in the fourth grade that I last tasted this treat. My mom had volunteered to conduct some sort of mind-numbing dessert luncheon to celebrate the success of a likewise mind-numbing, mass-student, elementary accomplishment. Though it's one of the easiest desserts to make, the blockhead moms of my classmates managed to come up with a number of sub-par variations. If you screw this one up, consider yourself doomed.
The recipe:
1/2 c. sugar
1/2 c. brown sugar
1/2 c. softened butter
1/2 c. peanut butter
1 pkg. chocolate chips
1/2 tsp. vanilla
1 egg
1 1/2 c. flour
2 c. miniature marshmallows
In large bowl, combine sugar, brown sugar, butter, peanut butter, vanilla and egg. Blend well, then stir in flour. Hand-press dough onto large cookie sheet or pizza pan, forming a rim along the edge.
Bake at 375 degrees for 10 minutes. Remove from oven and sprinkle with marshmallows, and chocolate chips. Continue baking for 5 to 8 minutes or until marshmallows are lightly brown. Cool and cut into wedges and serve. I obviously don't have a pizza pan.

Goddamn it, Eric. I was already feeling homesick enough for you and everybody - now on top of that, I miss your food.
