Decadent S’Mores Recipes

August 14, 2014 by Amanda R DeWitt

Did you guys know National S’Mores Day was this past Sunday?? 

S'mores 3 ways via @semihealthnut at semihealthyblog.com

I do love me some s’mores! Usually s’mores are put together with a roasted mallow (over a campfire of course) and chocolate sandwiched between two grahams. (Sandlot, anyone?)

The three s’mores recipes to come all have a slight twist on the classic recipe. Don’t miss out. Makes these ASAP!

I attended a wine tasting shindig at Mellissa’s house and decided we needed to celebrate S’Mores Day with a delicious s’mores cookie bar.

The idea was similar to my S’Mores Cookie Dough Pie except I made the graham cracker crust myself this time (don’t worry—super easy!) and used ginormous chocolate morsels with the cookie dough. And of course it wasn’t in a skillet this time.

The morsels are essential for your daily dose of chocolate. (or is that just me?)

Even Mellissa enjoyed these ooey gooey bars…and that’s saying something if you know her!

Yes, we ate right out of the pan. I blame the deliciocity of the bars because there’s no way wine has anything to do with decisions like that. Right? Winking smile

Since I literally only got one photo of the S’mores Cookie Bar, I decided I would also share a recipe I’ve been holding in my arsenal for a few weeks….my S’mores Croissants.

This one is super simple. Just grab some Pilsbury croissant rolls, stuff in some chocolate and mallows, roll-up and sprinkle with graham cracker crumbs. I personally love anything that requires me smashing up graham crackers.

This is a perfectly healthy way to get out pent up aggression. Winking smile

All of these s’mores recipes are a perfect way to wrap up the summer and possibly celebrate some back-to-school fun!

Speaking of which…I think I need to do some back-to-school shopping myself. And no, I’m not actually going back to school…I just can hardly help myself around fresh notebooks, colorful folders and a shiny new set of pens! Remember my Target office supply shopping spree? I might have a problem.

      I was thinking of doing a half this year but I haven’t been running at all..it would have to be in October! Good luck on your half! Although I’m sure I’ll talk to you before then. 🙂

    Is it weird that I never liked smores? I loved graham crackers and marshmallows by themselves but I hated them together. LOL! Oh and… I don’t like chocolate at all! HA! Maybe peanut butter would have made it DELICIOUS!

      August 18, 2014 at 8:44 am

      Well, I thought you were a weirdo before…but now…I’m sure of it! 😉 😉

      Have you tried s’mores with a reeces in the middle? I die!

    Funny I just posted my Frozen S’mores Bars recipe link on my FB page before I read this. Ooh-wee Ooh-wee!

    I feel like I haven’t talked to you in forever. That needs to change! 🙂

    • Amanda @ Diary of a Semi-Health Nut

      August 18, 2014 at 8:46 am

      Seriously!! When are we doing our Google hang-out?? Also frozen s’mores bars sound amazing!!!

    Well, that really knocked s’more’s day out of the park! We have been camping this weekend so I ate a TON of s’mores. Sadly, no run plans. Still taking it easy.

    • Amanda @ Diary of a Semi-Health Nut

      August 18, 2014 at 8:49 am

      S’mores are basically essential when camping!! And taking it easy is probably a good thing in your life now!! 🙂 <3

    Mmmmm now I want some marshmallows (that’s always my favorite part of the s’more). Hope you had fun in Chi-town this weekend, sorry the weather wasn’t the best for you.

    • Amanda @ Diary of a Semi-Health Nut

      August 18, 2014 at 8:50 am

      I do love me some mallows! I think my favorite part is the chocolate though…although I could eat roasted mallows plain. Especially when they are almost burnt. Is that weird?

    HOW DID I MISS S’MORES DAY!?? Guess I’ll have a belated celebration! lol
