How to Make a Marshmallow S'more

The campfire treat consists of a roasted marshmallow and chocolate between two pieces of graham crackers. Marshmallows are cooked over a campfire until they are golden brown. The warm marshmallow melts the chocolate and creates a gooey filling for the sandwich dessert. While traditional s'mores are a fun dessert to make, you can also make marshmallow s'more bars to enjoy indoors. Whichever method you choose to make, s'mores are a definite crowd pleaser.

Things You'll Need

• 2 large graham cracker squares
• Milk chocolate bar
• Marshmallow
• Skewer
• 6 cups mini marshmallows
• Large saucepan
• 1 cup large marshmallows
• 1/3 cup corn syrup
• 6 tbsp. butter
• 2 cups milk chocolate chips
• 1 tsp. vanilla
• 6 cups crushed graham crackers
• 1/2 cup semisweet chocolate chips
• 9-by-13-inch pan
• Nonstick spray

Instructions

Marshmallow S'mores

1. Break a large graham cracker square in half along the perforated line. Two graham crackers will create a square. You need two squares for each s'more.

2. Remove the wrapping from a large milk chocolate bar. Break the chocolate bar into sections that fit onto the graham cracker squares. Place the chocolate bar onto one graham cracker square.

3. Place a marshmallow onto a skewer or clean wooden stick. Hold the marshmallow over an open campfire and toast the marshmallow. Turn the marshmallow until all sides are golden brown. Remove the marshmallow and blow on it if it catches fire.

4. Place the hot marshmallow onto the chocolate. Press the other graham cracker square on top of the marshmallow. Slide the skewer out carefully.

5. Allow the s'more to cook slightly before consuming.

Marshmallow S'more Bar

1. Place 5 cups of mini marshmallows in a large saucepan with 1 cup of large marshmallows. Add 1/3 cup of corn syrup, 6 tbsp. of butter, and 1 1/2 cups of milk chocolate chips.

2. Place the saucepan over low heat. Stir the ingredients frequently until the marshmallows and chocolate chips melt.

3. Remove the mixture from the stovetop. Add 1 tsp. of vanilla to the mixture and stir in 6 cups of crushed graham crackers. Stir in 1 additional cup of mini marshmallows, 1/2 cup of milk chocolate chips and 1/2 cup of semisweet chocolate chips.

4. Spray a 9-by-13-inch baking pan with nonstick spray. Press the mixture onto the pan and allow it to cool. Cut the mixture into bars. The mixture will make up to 36 bars.

Tips & Warnings

• Place the assembled s'more in the microwave for 15 to 20 seconds if you do not have an open campfire.

• Children need adult supervision when making s'mores to prevent accidental burns.
