Hey there, sweet tooth enthusiasts and campfire connoisseurs! Ready to embark on a mouthwatering adventure that combines crispy, gooey, and oh-so-sweet perfection? Let’s dive into the art of making and savoring the ultimate S’mores!
Ingredients for S’more Magic:
- The Biscuit: in the USA they use Graham crackers but in Australia these are not readily available. Our favourite substitute is Arnotts Malt biscuits. The crunchy, golden base of our s’mores masterpiece.
- Marshmallows: Choose the classic white ones for that timeless taste. Bonus points if you go for flavoured marshmallows for an extra twist!
- Chocolate Bars: Milk chocolate is the go-to, but don’t shy away from dark or even flavoured chocolates for a gourmet touch. Our favourite is to use a Caramello Koala.
The Art of S’more Creation:
- Prep the Perfect Spot:
- Campfire or Grill: The classic choice. Build your fire with a bed of hot coals or wood and let the flames die down a bit for that perfect roasting heat.
- Roast Your Marshmallows:
- Skewer a marshmallow on a long stick or roasting fork. Hold it over the flames (not directly in them!) and turn slowly to get an even golden-brown toast. For a crispy, caramelized outer layer and melty inside, don’t rush this step!
- Assemble Your S’more:
- Use 2 biscuits for a top and bottom layer. Place a piece of chocolate on top of 1 biscuit. Once your marshmallow is perfectly roasted, gently place it on the chocolate and then top with the other biscuit. Press down slightly to let the chocolate melt into the marshmallow.
- Savor the Flavour:
- Take a bite and revel in the delicious gooeyness. The combination of the crispy biscuit, melty chocolate, and warm marshmallow creates a symphony of flavours and textures that will make your taste buds dance!
Pro Tips for S’mores Perfection:
- Experiment with Flavors: Try using different types of chocolate, or even add some peanut butter or a sprinkle of sea salt for a unique twist!
- Make it a Party: Set up a s’mores station with various toppings and mix-ins like caramel or nuts. Let everyone create their personalised s’mores!
