Five Ways to Make S'mores More Magical
It has already been established that I love cooking food with fire. Case in point, Campfire Bananas. And Pierogie Sandwiches. And Campfire Baked Apples. And did I mention the Campfire Bananas?
It will come as no surprise that s'mores are a thing when I'm around.
It should also come as no surprise that I can't just leave things alone. You guys, did you know that you can take perfection and make it perfectioner? YOU CAN. (It's totally a word.)
Without further ado, here are five tried and true ways to make s'mores perfectioner.
1. The Salty Dog
Who says that graham crackers are the only thing you can use to make a s'more? I can tell you with absolute certainty that salty crackers are pretty phenomenal as well. Ritz are my favorite.
2. The Mixer
There is no law that says you have to use a plain chocolate bar to make a s'more. Mix things up with a Reese's cup, Kit Kats, Nestle Crunch, Milky Way, Snickers, or even a Clark bar. I'm sure other candy bars are delightful as well, but I can vouch for that crew. For what it's worth, I can also vouch for shoving a Rolo inside the marshmallow before you roast it.
Seriously. Try it.
3. The Double Down
You know those S'mores Oreos? Didja know they kick butt when used to make a s'more?
Kick the graham cracker to the curb and make your day a little more magical.
4. The Nutter
Spread peanut butter on your graham crackers before you stuff that marshmallow and chocolate in there. Nutella is also fun, but I'm team peanut butter on this one.
5. The Elvis
Or go bigger and do it up Elvis style. Peanut butter, chocolate, marshmallow, and banana. YES. REALLY.
Of note, when I told Alexis that a sandwich with peanut butter and banana was an "Elvis thing" she looked me square in the eye and said, "He was a beautiful man."
She's smart and stuff.
So is the baby who magically appeared just in time to try to steal my s'mores collection mid-photograph.
(I am obviously Team Char That Marshmallow. I will forgive you if you are one of those people who carefully roast the marshmallow so as to never set it on fire. Mostly I forgive you because while you dance that marshmallow dance, I'll be busy downing ten s'mores.)

My hands down favorite way to have store is with a strawberry marshmallow and the cookies and cream chocolate bar. That right there is perfection.
Your recipes are downright droolworthy! As a longtime reader, I'm not sure how I missed the pierogi sandwich.
Heaven for a carb lover like me!
"He was a beautiful man." BWAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHAHAHAHAHA! and YES HE WAS!
