Today, it has been adapted into many interesting variations.

Good Old S’mores

* Hershey’s chocolate bar

* marshmallows

* graham crackers

Place half of a Hershey’s® Milk Chocolate bar onto a graham cracker half. Carefully toast a marshmallow over a grill or campfire. After the marshmallow is toasted a nice golden brown, place it on top of the chocolate bar half. Sandwich it with a second cracker half and gently press it together. Enjoy! Comment: Use Nestle’ crunch chocolate bar for nut lovers.

Melty S’mores

* Hershey’s chocolate bar

* marshmallows

* graham crackers

* aluminum foil

Sandwich marshmallow and chocolate between 2 graham crackers. Wrap in tinfoil. Place on top of fire and let it melt together nicely.

Cookie S’mores

* 1 package Keebler Fudge Stripes cookies

* 1 package large marshmallows

Roast your marshmallow over the campfire on your fire-stick. When marshmallow is done, place it between two cookies and gently pull the marshmallow off the stick. The cookies seem to melt in your mouth. Easy and very tasty! Comments: Not as rich as a slab of Hershey’s chocolate used in the classic recipe.

Smothered S’mores

* semi-sweet chocolate morsels

* marshmallows

* sprinkles (jimmies, cinnamon, colored sugar, etc. )

Melt chocolate in aluminum pie plate or disposable bread tin. Place marshmallow on skewer and roll in melted chocolate. Then roll in your favorite topping. Topping ideas: crushed graham crackers, nuts, or colorful jimmies, shredded coconut, etc. Comments: If you don’t want to bother melting chocolate chips, use Hershey’s chocolate syrup instead.

Peanut Butter S’mores

* graham crackers

* miniature Reese’s peanut butter cups

* marshmallows

Toast the marshmallow. Place one peanut butter cup on a graham cracker. Top with the toasted marshmallow and a second graham cracker. Comments: Try the new white chocolate Reese’s peanut butter cup. Or use Andes Mints for mint lovers.

Mexican S’mores

* peanut butter

* chocolate chips

* miniature marshmallows

* flour tortilla (small)

Spread peanut butter on tortilla, sprinkle with chocolate chips and marshmallows, then roll up the tortilla shell. Wrap in foil and twist foil ends. Cook on grill grate over your fire for about 5 minutes. Unwrap and indulge.

Banana Boat S’mores

* banana

* mini marshmallows

* chocolate chips

Leave banana in peel. Slice it horizontally, NOT in half, and NOT fully through, only through top of banana and peel. Open it up like a hot dog bun and put in chocolate and marshmallows. Wrap in tinfoil and heat over fire. Tips for Adults: I can’t compete with the kids. They can down unlimited marshmallows and chocolate bars with impunity. My body’s not made the same way (sigh). So, I try to make the best experience out of my one s’mores. Enjoy it with a hot cup of unsweetened herbal tea or sugar-free hot chocolate. You’ll spare your system a sugar shock, and you can save the calories for that juicy steak tomorrow.
