HAPPY FLUFFERNUTTER DAY!


Martini #Excuse #78
OCTOBER 8th is
NATIONAL FLUFFERNUTTER DAY
Celebrate with the Fluffy Nutty Martini

What's a Fluffernutter you ask? It's a sandwich made with peanut butter and some marshmallow fluff cream, usually spread between two slices of white bread.  It was quite a popular snack for children once upon a time, especially back in the East Coast and the Mid-West, and was even proposed as the Massachusetts state sandwich at one point.

I'm sure parents in this day and age of sugar rush awareness are a bit horrified by the idea, but if you've never tried a Fluffernutter sandwich you're missing out on a really yummy snack.  I was addicted to them as a kid. (Pssst - don't tell anyone but I would add pieces of Hershey's chocolate bar to mine!)

To bring this into the adult realm of happy hour, I've taken these two flavors and translated them into a cocktail that should bring back all those fluffy, nutty memories of childhood in my Fluffy Nutty Martini.  If you can't find the Castries Peanut Rum Creme you can substitute Frangelico which is a hazelnut liqueur, but it's not quite the same taste experience.  The melted marshmallow and crushed peanut rim is the absolute perfect rim for this cocktail so don't leave it off!

If you want to really get into the Fluffernutter experience, make up some of the sandwiches to serve with the cocktail but grill them! You can cut these up into triangles and serve up with the Fluffy Nutty Martini.  Try adding bananas to the sandwiches or, like me, add a couple of squares of chocolate bar!
