How To Make Marshmallow S’mores

The name says it all: s’mores. These tasty, laid-back treats will always leave you wanting “some more.” This campfire staple’s simplicity is what makes it so great. As fall rolls in and more campfires are built, families will stock up on the three ingredients vital to this sweet treat. The perfect s’more is fun to make and is a great activity for the whole family. Toasting a marshmallow just right is quite an art, just be careful to not get the marshmallow too close to the flame or it may ignite, leaving you with a charred sugary lump. The perfect s’more is made by sandwiching a toasted or homemade marshmallow and chocolate bar between two graham crackers. The warmth from the gooey marshmallow will slightly melt the chocolate. And although these are best made over a campfire, you can still celebrate a rainy day by roasting marshmallows over a gas stove. In this video, Chef Susie will show you how to make homemade marshmallows and s’mores that are finger-licking good. For more great cooking demonstration videos, subscribe to the LearnToCookOnline YouTube channel.
