S’mores

Four S’mores and Several Nights Ago …

We can’t wait for our 1st backyard bonfire of the season.  When the temperatures drop below 60, and there’s a cool breeze in the air.  We always have so many dead branches and brush piles to get rid of from the summer backyard messes. Have I mentioned that I love this time of year?!?  I do love this time of year! 

And what goes better at the campfire than s’mores for dessert?  Why not try some of our easy recipes?

Traditional S’mores

What you need:

• 1 ~2 – 3’ stick
• 2 – ½ Graham Crackers
• 1 marshmallow
• 3 portions of Hershey bar

Steps:

1. Lay the 2 Graham Cracker sides out and put the Hershey bar portion on one side.
2. Cook the marshmallow evenly on all sides until golden brown.  (Be careful not to get too close to the flame to start on fire and rotate continually so it doesn’t fall off the stick.)
3. Use the top Graham Cracker to push the marshmallow off the stick and onto the Hershey bar to melt the chocolate.
4. Add the top, and eat.

Estimated Time:

~5 minutes.
