S’MORES! Some Delicious S’mores Ideas

I’ve been thinking a lot about S’mores lately. My husband was begging to do a cook out and have a fire yesterday, with hot dogs (gross! but if you top them with guacamole, shredded monterrey jack or colby cheese and pico or salsa, and crushed tortilla chips they are actually pretty good), and why do I agree to do a campfire? Because that means S’mores! No it wasn’t quite warm enough to be outdoors roasting hot dogs and marshmallows but it made if feel like it was almost summer, so it was fun pretending. And I’ll endure through the cold if it means I get a perfectly golden brown marshmallow with a lightly crisp almost shell like exterior to cover a perfectly soft and melted marshmallow fluff center to go along with melted chocolate and anything else I see fit all sandwiched between two honey kissed graham crackers. I’ve imagined a few ideas of what I think would make an over the top S’more and just wanted to share since S’more season is just around the corner. Some of them will be more convenient made at home in your backyard fire pit vs taking all the ingredients camping. I haven’t tried all of them yet so let me know if you do and which you like. I’d also love to hear your ideas if you have more (because you can’t have too many). Now go and throw a S’mores party and show your friends what a S’more can really be :).

  • melted caramel (with a little cream), toasted coconut and chocolate (Samoa, pictured above)
  • Ghirardelli caramel or raspberry filled chocolate squares
  • peanut butter or almond butter
  • chopped candy bars – especially Snickers or whole Reese’s
  • triple berry – fresh blueberries, raspberries and blackberries plus chocolate or white chocolate
  • roasted sweet potatoes slices
  • fresh mango slices
  • lime curd and shredded sweetened coconut
  • raspberry jam or raspberry curd and dark chocolate
  • Maldon sea salt or fleur de sel on the original
  • any kind of nut added to the original
  • strawberries, bananas, dark chocolate, caramel sauce, pecans/almonds {Ice Cream Sundae} (pictured)
  • toasted coconut with and macadamia nuts or pineapple
  • fresh strawberries and lemon curd {Strawberry Lemonade}
  • Andes Mints with chocolate graham crackers {Grasshopper}
  • chocolate orange pieces (these) or a little of orange zest over chocolate, with chocolate grahams
  • sandwich roasted vanilla marshmallows between two peanut butter, chocolate chip or chocolate cookies

This one you must try:

  • chocolate marshmallows, chocolate graham crackers and semi-sweet or bittersweet chocolate {Chocolate Lovers S’more} (pictured). This would also be good with strawberries or raspberries. I used homemade chocolate marshmallows but you may be able to find the Jet Puffed chocolate marshmallows at the store if you don’t want to make them. I used this recipe here, I added an additional 2 Tbsp cocoa to the 1/4 cup (so 6 Tbsp total) then I also adjusted the coating to be 1/4 cup powdered sugar, 1/4 cup cornstarch and 2 Tbsp cocoa powder. They are amazing! I may have cut mine a bit too big, but I do like a lot of marshmallow inside of a s’more….

chocolate lovers s'mores - even non s'mores lovers will LOVE these! completely divine!
