S’mores – Want some more? Well, that is what it was named, because you’ll always want another one of this tempting treat. So, today is National S’mores Day! And, if you’re going away this weekend or having a barbecue or beach party, get ready to enjoy this gooey treat.
National S’mores Day
Although this was made popular by both the Boy Scouts and Girl Scouts in the 1920s; this day wasn’t created until a few years ago by the National Confectioner’s Association.
For anyone planning a camping trip, there is nothing tastier than having a s’more. Of course, this is everyone’s favorite part of the meal for any camping trip. And, even if you’re not going camping, you can still toast marshmallows over a fire or even heat them in a microwave.
Celebrate National S’mores Day
Are you ready to celebrate this fun non-holiday? Well, if you’re not going camping; sit around a bonfire and gather some of your friends and you can tell some funny stories. Or, plan a barbecue in your backyard and make these yummy treats for dessert. Be sure to read my National Barbecue Month post for some ideas on some food you can serve up.
For dessert, the kit below is ideal. At the same time, this station has two built-in stations, so more than one person can create their own s’more. Also, this kit comes with two forks which makes it easy to turn as you’re preparing your dessert.

In addition to the above suggestions, you can easily make your own. Meanwhile, all you need is graham crackers, milk chocolate, and marshmallows. First, if you’re making these by the fire, grill the marshmallow. And, then put the marshmallow in between the crackers, add another piece of chocolate and graham cracker, and voila – you have the perfect s’more.
Because there are so many different types of chocolates that easily melt, you can add other ingredients such as peanut butter or Nutella. Another yummy chocolate that is easy to melt is a peanut butter cup. Of course, the key is to use chocolate that melts easily. In fact, you can really get creative in making a s’more.
If you have a unique way to prepare this treat, I would love to hear your ideas.
In summary, enjoy your S’more treat and have some more today!
Happy National S’mores Day!
