Decadent S’Mores Recipes

August 14, 2014 by Amanda R DeWitt

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!
