S’mores on a stick: The perfect treat for real (or pretend) campouts!

Try these S’mores on a stick at your next pretend campout!

 

My daughter is celebrating “Texas week” at preschool and they are going to have a pretend camp out. Students will bring sleeping bags and they will sing campfire songs around a tissue paper and brown bag campfire (courtesy of Pinterest). But what camp out is complete with out a treat like S’mores! Who doesn’t love the traditional “roast your marshmallow over the open flame, slide it off onto a piece of chocolate and a graham cracker” s’more? (YUMM!). However; to make it easier to prepare and eat for 4 and 5 year olds (and much less messy for the teacher!), we made S’mores on a stick. Mia and I had so much fun making these together and it only took maybe 20 minutes total!

What you need: (I made about 22 of them)

  • 1/3 of the bag of chocolate chips
  • 5 large graham crackers
  • 22 marshmallows
  • 22 lollipop sticks

 Instructions

  1. Push the marshmallows, each one, onto a stick.
  2. Melt the chocolate chips. I used about 1/3 of the bag of chocolate chips and melted them in the microwave for about 1 minute, 45 seconds on 50% power level. (I figured I could always melt more if I needed it)
  3. Crush the graham crackers by putting them into a zip lock bag and crushing them with a rolling pin.
  4. Dip the marshmallow into the chocolate (swirl around) then roll thru the graham crackers to coat.

Place on a sheet of wax paper and let cool for at least 30 minutes.

*I stored mine in the refrigerator overnight.

  1. I love this and look forward to trying for our tent in the family room night this weekend! Also, we will have to trade out graham crackers for some crumbled gluten free cookies at our house. Thanks!
