Today is national s’more day! I think it’s my favorite holiday behind the 4th of July, Christmas, and New Years. Give me a solid hour and I’ll tell you all about why s’mores are the perfect dessert, but we could all just eat one instead & realize why they’re so great! S’mores are an excellent dessert because you can take the time to perfectly torch your mallow, which as I just said, takes time! When it comes to me + desserts (yummy ones) time is my best friend, because if I could eat s’mores like cookies or brownies by just popping them in my mouth, I’d be 10 down before realizing it. True story. RD confession. That’s why I love s’mores! They take time, they’re uber gooey & therefore take even more time to eat because you have to lick the melty chocolate and gooey mallows off your fingers and chin.
Need another reason why they rock so much! Toasting s’mores with your kids is so fun & a great way to get the whole family involved (well the family members who can safely stand next to a fire & hold a potential fire hazard). Kids can even get creative with yummy (and healthy!) toppings!
Interested in adding yummy nutrients and color to your s’mores? Try these summery toppings:
- Fresh berries
- Dried fruit
- Bananas
- Peanut butter
- Fresh Utah peaches
