Taste Tuesdays-S'mores Panini

Taste Tuesdays-S'mores PaniniThis chocolately, extra sweet concoction is a S'mores Panini that our friend shared with us at the Sand Gnats game we went to on Thursday. They are the minor league baseball team in Savannah, and on Thursdays they do their "Thirsty Thursday" promotion with dirt cheap beer and drink prices. Anyway, this "dessert sandwich" had chocolate, graham cracker, powdered sugar (quite possible every type of sugar on the planet) and of course, tons of chocolate syrup, all somehow served on crispy panini bread. I thought it was going to be slap-your-mama good, but it was honestly too sweet. We all agreed that it needed something to balance it out (oddly enough we all said cheese, but maybe our brains just wanted a big glass of milk with this gooeyness instead of beer which only made the beer taste more bitter and the panini taste more sweet. No balance at all!).
I am now intrigued to make one at home or go back and give the S'mores Panini another chance. I mean, how can it NOT be good? In related thoughts, do any of you have a panini press? If yes and you love it, let me know what kind you have as I really want to get one, but I always think to myself, "We can just use a skillet and press down on the sandwich with a spatula..." (even though we rarely do that and it's just not the same!).
