During the summer months we spend as much time as possible outside playing, mowing, picking up fallen tree branches and of course one of the favorites building a bonfire and making S’mores.  Since it has been so wet and we have been traveling a lot over the last couple of months we haven’t had an opportunity to build any bonfires.  The girls are determined to have one this fall.  A couple weeks ago we were hanging out together as a family inside because it was raining and one of the girls mentioned eating S’mores around the fire.  Instead of going out in the rain we made indoor S’mores and ate them while watching a movie together.

I have done these a variety of different ways with the S’mores maker, in the oven or toaster oven.  Since we were only making a couple at a time I choose to use the toaster oven to make our indoor S’mores on this particular night.  The girls love watching the marshmallows “grow” and turn dark!

Indoor S’mores:

• 1 box Grahams Crackers
• 1 bag large Marshmallows
• 1 package Hershey Chocolates

Take a whole graham cracker and break it in half.  Put one half in the toaster oven (or on cookie sheet) and set aside the remaining half of graham cracker.  Stack a piece of Hershey’s chocolate and a marshmallow on top of the graham cracker.  Turn the oven or toaster oven on broil for 3 to 5 minutes or until the marshmallow has started to melt and turn dark.  The chocolate will start to melt as well.  Carefully remove the graham cracker, chocolate, and marshmallow out of the oven and transfer them to a platter or individual plates.  Put the remaining half of the graham cracker on top and press down lightly.

 Put on the top graham cracker and you’re ready to ENJOY your delicious Indoor S’mores!
