Campfire S’Mores

IMAGE by Cheri Sicard

It's hard to believe, but I never tasted a s'more until I was an adult. I never got to be a girl scout, so the occasion never arose when I was a kid. So if you're like I was and don't already know how to make this classic camping treat, here's the formula:

Ingredients:

6 regular sized chocolate bars (Hershey bars are the classic choice, but use your favorite flat chocolate bar)
12 whole graham crackers, each split into 2 inch squares
24 large marshmallows

Makes 24

Roast marshmallows over the campfire, making them just as you need them for each S'more (these treats are best consumed hot or at least, warm). For each S'more place one roasted marshmallow and one small square of chocolate between 2 graham cracker squares. Give it all a little squeeze and take a bite!

Variations:

* Chocolate lovers may want to double the amount of chocolate.

* Try spreading the crackers with peanut butter before adding chocolate and marshmallow.

* Cashew or almond butter or Nutella® (a chocolate hazelnut spread) also work well.

* Raspberry jam or preserves also make a great spread before adding marshmallow and chocolate.

Don't like chocolate? Try any of the above variations with white chocolate or Hershey's Cookies and Cream bars.

Don't forget to try the new chocolate graham crackers on market for an even sweeter treat.
