S'Mores

We all have those memories of summer vacation, sitting round a campfire and making S’Mores! We still get excited seeing a fluffy marshmallow lightly crackle and ooze, so why not try this recipe and recreate the ultimate camper’s dessert.

Here's our fave way to make S'mores on a campfire:

Ingredients: 

• Cooking oil
• Jumbo marshmallows
• Sweet crackers (such as Graham crackers)
• Dark chocolate (to be broken into squares)
• Pinch of sea salt
• Metal skewers

Instructions:

1. Take a metal skewer, and assemble a S'more! Start by rubbing a little oil onto the skewer, this will stop the marshmallows sticking to it. Skewer a marshmallow.
2. Snap a cracker in half, top with a square of chocolate, and sprinkle on a little salt. Set aside.
3. Roast the marshmallow by holding it over a flame and rotating. The marshmallow should be golden and gooey. Lower the marshmallow and let it catch fire before immediately blowing it out. This will give the marshmallow a smokey taste.
4. As soon as the marshmallow is ready, squash it  onto the chocolate-topped cracker, and place the other half of the cracker on top. Delicately pull the skewer out from between the two crackers. You should have a sugary-sweet marshmallow and chocolate sandwich which should be enjoyed immediately.
