Have you ever eaten a S’more you did not like? Didn’t think so! This nostalgic summertime treat embodies every ounce of summer memories smooshed between two graham crackers. Our boys love when we start a fire after dinner time. There is something so calming, as the fast pace of cooking and cleaning up dinner is suddenly slowed down by the twinkle of a fire in the background. Our pantry is always stocked with the basic S’mores ingredients so that we are prepared for an impromptu fire with friends. We all know the traditional ingredients to make this classic treat.. two graham crackers, marshmallow and a hunk of Hershey’s chocolate. But what would happen if we elevated your basic S’more experience? Taking this traditional treat and giving it the most delicious twist possible?!
Imagine a fruit and cheese board, except you are making a spread for your guests that let their imagination run wild with combinations for their S’mores! I took basic graham crackers and added a dollop of melted semi-sweet chocolate in the middle. On top of the melted chocolate you add your topping of choice! We used mini chocolate chip cookies, hunks of candy bar, sprinkles, shredded coconut, and milk chocolate pretzels with a pinch of himalayan sea salt.
These decadent decorated graham crackers will soon hold a toasted marshmallow squished in between!
Walking out to your campfire with this beautiful spread will make your guests jaws drop! Assorted graham crackers topped with a multitude of treats. Cookies to be used instead of graham crackers, because, you only live once! Two Brothers chocolate bars (some are filled with caramel!) And a tangy raspberry jam to spread on the base you picked for your S’mores sandwich!
My favorite combination is the graham cracker with peanut butter cups, a dollop of jam – and of course, the toasted marshmallow. It’s a PB&J S’more that pairs so well with a glass of red wine.
Strolling down the aisles of Heinens you’ll be astonished at all of your choices when creating your S’mores board!
Treat your friends and family to the most incredible campfire this summer, by walking out with this enormous spread!
