Bite-Sized S'mores in the Oven | Easy Fall Dessert



Last fall I attended a party at Darcy Miller's home (editor of Martha Stewart Weddings) for the book launch of Peter Callahan's new book, Bite by Bite.  The entire cookbook is artfully created mini ideas for food.  One of the desserts served at the party were these little bite-size s'mores.  I've always loved s'mores, but there is something about these one bite, open-faced s'mores that are sooooo great.  They are not messy and they are so easy to make - they are ready in 45 seconds!

I made these mini s'mores as part of my Pumpkin Harvest Fall Entertaining class.  After a big filling bowl of butternut and beef chili and a cheddar jalapeno scone, these were the perfect tiny little sweet bite to end the class.


This isn't really a recipe, but more of a list of very simple instructions.

Cut the graham crackers into 1-inch squares (basically, 1 graham cut into 8ths).  Use a serrated bread knife to cut - it makes it very easy without too much breakage.


Cut small pieces of chocolate to fit on top of the graham pieces.


Line them up on a baking sheet.

Sorry, not pic of the last step!  Just cut a marshmallow into thirds with a hot, wet serrated knife and place them on top of the chocolate.

Put them in the oven under the broiler for 30-45 seconds.  Depending on your oven... watch them carefully, they will burn very quickly!

S'mores | Valentine's Day Dessert | Recipes | Homemade Marshmallows


S'mores.  Whether it is in front of your fireplace, over your gas stove, or a real bonfire, s'mores are such a romantic dessert to make - They are rustic and messy and ooey and gooey... perfect for my kind of Valentine's Day.  But, because I couldn't wait for Valentine's Day, I put this romantic recipe to work last night after dinner.  I know, it might seem like a 'no-duh' type of recipe.  But, for those of you that never went to camp or on a hayride... here is the recipe for making s'mores!

Note : I used heart-shaped homemade marshmallows - get the recipe here.

S'mores

4 graham grackers
2 hershey's bars
8 marshmallows (homemade marshmallow recipe here!)
2 sticks
1 fire

1) Start a/Find a fire.  You can use your fireplace (gas or wood burning), fire pit, gas stove, or microwave, if necessary. 

2) Find two long sticks or long wooden skewers.  Again, creativity is key here.  Last night, I used tongs.  Put two marshmallows on each skewer.

3) Toast the marshmallows over the fire for about 3-5 minutes until gooey and toasted.

4) Sandwich the toasted marshmallows with graham crackers and chocolate.
