S’mores

Short description

I share a simple, nostalgic treat of toasted marshmallow and melted chocolate sandwiched between graham crackers—the perfect campfire indulgence I can make at home in minutes.

Why You’ll Love This Recipe

I love how fast and easy it is—I gather three basic ingredients, toast a marshmallow until golden, then sandwich it with chocolate and graham cracker. In about five minutes total (3 minutes prep + 2 minutes cook) I have one perfect s’more.
Campfire vibes in my kitchen, gooey and melty, nostalgic and delightful—no oven needed unless I want a melted finish.

ingredients

directions

4. I let it cool briefly so I can enjoy it without burning myself.

Servings and timing

• Makes: 1 s’more

• Prep time: about 3 minutes

• Cook time: about 2 minutes

• Total: around 5 minutes

Variations

I’ve tried a few tasty twists:

• I swap the chocolate bar for chopped chocolate or chocolate chips.

• I use flavored or rainbow marshmallows.

• I’ve replaced graham crackers with digestive biscuits or chocolate wafers.

• I even microwave it briefly to melt the chocolate more thoroughly.

storage/reheating

S’mores are best served immediately while marshmallow is still molten. If I do have leftovers (rare!), I wrap them in foil and refrigerate. To reheat, I gently warm them in a toaster oven or microwave just until they soften—watch carefully to avoid a gooey mess.

FAQs

What kind of chocolate is best for s’mores?

I find a standard milk chocolate candy bar melts just right. But chopped dark chocolate or chocolate chips work just as well if I want a richer experience.

Can I make s’mores without a campfire?

Absolutely. I’ve toasted marshmallows over a gas stove flame, used a wooden skewer over candle heat, or even used a kitchen torch. Microwaving the assembled s’more for about 30 seconds also works in a pinch.

Are there vegetarian or vegan options?

Yes! I’ve used vegan marshmallows and dairy‑free chocolate. And some graham crackers are vegan—but I check labels to be sure.

How do I prevent marshmallow from burning?

I roast the marshmallow slowly, rotating it over low to medium flame, until it’s golden overall—not charred. Patience leads to gooey perfection.

Can I make more than one at a time?

Definitely! I assemble several on a baking sheet and warm them briefly under a broiler or in a toaster oven until everything melts. That’s especially helpful when hosting friends.

Conclusion

I personally love this S’more recipe for its simplicity, nostalgia, and melty deliciousness. It brings back memories of camping, roasting marshmallows, and sweet treats by the fire. Whether outdoors or in my kitchen, it’s easy—and always satisfying.
