Nothing says camping quite like a s'more! While gathering around a crackling fire with friends and family, sharing stories and catching up, listening to music and enjoying the beauty and quiet of Lakeshore Family Campground is only made better with a marshmallow roasting at the same time. Are you a lover of the classic or do you have your own creation? Check out some ideas below and let us know, how do you s'more?
1. The Classic Combo: Graham Cracker, Chocolate, & Marshmallow
Let's kick things off with the classic s'more. You probably all know, but you begin by roasting your marshmallow to your preferred level of gooey perfection over the campfire. Slide the perfectly toasted marshmallow onto a graham cracker topped with a piece of decadent chocolate. Press another graham cracker on top, creating a delicious sandwich, and enjoy the warm, melty goodness.
2. The Double Decker Delight
Why stop at one layer of goodness when you can have two? For this variation, roast two marshmallows to golden-brown perfection. Sandwich the first marshmallow between two graham crackers with a layer of chocolate, then add the second marshmallow on top before sealing the deal with another graham cracker. Indulge in this extra gooey and decadent treat that is sure to satisfy every s'mores lover's cravings.
3. The S'mores Banana Boat
Prepare for a flavorful twist on the traditional s'mores by trying the delightful s'mores banana boat. Slice a banana lengthwise (but don't cut all the way through) and stuff it with marshmallows and chocolate pieces. Wrap the banana boat in foil and place it on the campfire to cook until the ingredients melt together into a gooey delight. Once ready, dig in with a spoon and experience a delicious mix of flavors that will leave you craving more. And what magical goodness would this be if you added a scoop of icecream once you take it off the fire?
4. The S'mores Cone Surprise
Level up your s'mores game by making s'mores in a cone! Fill a waffle cone with mini marshmallows and chocolate chips, then wrap it in foil. Place the cone near the campfire to allow the ingredients to melt together. Once melted, unwrap the cone and enjoy a mess-free and delightful s'mores experience. The crispy cone adds an extra crunch to each bite, making it a perfect camping treat.
5. S'mores Dip for the Win
For a communal s'mores experience, try making a s'mores dip over the campfire. Place a cast-iron skillet over the fire and layer the bottom with chocolate chips, followed by a generous amount of marshmallows. Let the skillet cook until the marshmallows are golden and gooey. Dip graham crackers into the melted chocolate and marshmallow goodness for a shareable and mouthwatering s'mores sensation that will have everyone coming back for more.
