Ingredients

  • 12 Graham Crackers
  • 24 Large Marshmallows
  • 6 Milk Chocolate Bars I generally use Hershey’s Chocolate Bars without the nuts

Instructions

Classic Campfire S’mores

  • Get your graham cracker and chocolate ready before you roast your marshmallow. I find it is easier this way. Break a graham cracker in half and lay the two halves on a plate. Top with a square of chocolate. If using a Hershey’s bar this is 2 rectangles.
    12 Graham Crackers, 24 Large Marshmallows, 6 Milk Chocolate Bars
  • Next, add two large marshmallows on a skewer that is safe for roasting over a campfire. And roast until golden brown or charred to your liking.
  • Add the hot marshmallows on top of the chocolate and press with the other side of the graham cracker.
  • Let sit for a few seconds to melt the chocolate, then enjoy.
