Show Notes
Today’s guest is Elisa Marshall, the co-founder and creative director of Maman, the beloved café and bakery, and lifestyle brand, with over 50 locations in North America. She’s also the co-author of “Maman: The Cookbook: All-Day Recipes to Warm Your Heart.”
Elisa joins host Jessie Sheehan to talk about the childhood memories that inspired Maman and shares how her love of vintage pieces, blue-and-white florals, Martha Stewart, and family recipes helped shape the cafe’s signature aesthetic and menu.
She also walks Jessie through her S’mores Cookie Bar recipe from “Maman: The Cookbook.” It’s a playful hybrid of s’mores and chocolate chip cookies, studded with graham crackers, mini marshmallows, and two kinds of dark chocolate. Elisa explains why she loves to incorporate both chocolate wafers and chopped bar chocolate, why the bars bake at a lower temperature than cookies, and why adding extra chocolate and marshmallows midway through the bake is essential.
