August 10th is National S’mores Day!

How to Make S'mores thumbnail Today is National S’Mores Day!  Here’s how to make this tasty campfire treat!  (also can be made in the microwave)

They’ve been a treat at campfires for generations and always leave everyone wanting “some more.” Makes one s’more.

Instructions – Adult Supervision Required!

  1. Gather around a warm campfire with friends or family.
  2. Break a graham cracker into two halves. Place one quarter of a chocolate bar on one half of a graham cracker.

  3. Stick one large marshmallow on the end of a wire or clean stick. An unwound wire hanger works well.

  4. Hold your marshmallow several inches over the hot embers of the fire.
  5. Rotate the wire as the marshmallow cooks, allowing the marshmallow to become lightly browned all over.
  6. Place the browned marshmallow on top of the graham cracker and chocolate.
  7. Place the other half of the graham cracker on top of the marshmallow, creating a sandwich.
  8. While firmly holding the two graham crackers together, pull the wire out of the marshmallow.
  9. Wait about 30 seconds for the warm marshmallow to melt the chocolate.
  10. Enjoy!

    Eat the s’more after allowing it to cool. You’ll want some more – so return to step two.
