THE CLASSIC S’MORE

Toasted marshmallow and a square of Hershey’s chocolate between two graham crackers. It’s a time-tested favorite.

CHOCOLATE CHIP COOKIE S’MORE

Replace the graham crackers with two chocolate chip cookies. The toasted marshmallows slightly warm up the cookies for that “just baked” taste.

MINTY FRESH S’MORE

Use a York Peppermint Patty or Andes chocolate on your S’more for a refreshing treat.

PEANUT BUTTER S’MORE

Many Scouts claim that Reese’s Peanut Butter Cups make for a superior S’more. For an even richer taste, spread peanut butter on the graham crackers before assembly.

BREAKFAST S’MORE

Place melted chocolate and a toasted marshmallow between two freshly cooked pancakes to start your day. Add some crumbled bacon for a complete breakfast.

STRAWBERRY SHORTCAKE S’MORE

Slather strawberry jam between two halves of a freshly cooked biscuit and add a toasted marshmallow. It’s great on its own, but it’s even better with a little bit of chocolate.

HAWAIIAN S’MORE

Substitute a Mounds or Almond Joy for the traditional chocolate for a coconutty taste of the islands.

RITZY S’MORE

Try a Ritz cracker or Saltine instead of graham crackers for a sweet and salty flavor profile.

OREO COOKIE S’MOREOS

Twist apart an Oreo cookie and lick off the cream filling. Replace it with a toasted marshmallow for an easy and delicious S’more.

NUTELLA S’MORE

Mmmm, Nutella. It improves the taste of everything, including S’mores.

CHOCOLATE ORANGE S’MORE

Add a wedge or two of clementine orange to add a little tanginess. It’s especially good with a darker chocolate.
