How to Make a S’mores Board

‍Pass the ‘mallows

Dare we say it…you’re gonna want s’more!

Wherever people are gathered around a fire, s’mores are pretty much an essential. Grahams, marshmallows, and of course chocolate are no-brainers for this sticky treat. But who knew you could make even a s’mores board so delicious you might not want to eat it? (We did!) Here’s our best advice on crafting this delicious board:

Start with your campfire! If you don’t have a backyard firepit, we love cute tabletop options. Here are two we like best:

• Isopropyl alcohol fireplace
• The original go-anywhere campfire

What you need:

• Graham crackers: regular, cinnamon, chocolate
• Marshmallows - Tip: get fancy and explore with cinnamon, caramel pumpkin, nutella or strawberry flavors.
• Chocolate - Tip: higher milk content melts easier. Chocolate disks are also a great route to go. Even mixing things up by having both milk and white chocolate will make your s’mores board the one everybody remembers.
• Serving tray - Tip: etsy makes super cute wooden s'mores specific trays if you have extra space lying around for something specialty.
• Roasting sticks 
• Skewers for display or picking toppings

Add on with any (or all) of these toppings:

• Reese’s peanut butter cups (or almond butter alternative)
• Hershey’s cookies ‘n’ creme bars
• White chocolate bars
• Strawberries
• Yogurt covered pretzels
• Caramels
• Oreos
• Sliced apples
• Ritz crackers
• Cookie wafers

‍Ideas for spreads in bowls:

Spoon these into bowls for guests to spread on their graham crackers. 

• Nutella
• Nut butter

From here, you know what to do! Envision a charcuterie design, but s’mores edition! Arrange the goods in groups, swirl a nice line of marshmallows, spread a nutella or cookie butter in a bowl, and watch your guests’ mouths water.  

Honestly, there’s really no wrong way to build a s’mores board. When you have chocolate and some savory add-ons, you’re ‘second to the right, and straight on till morning,’ as Peter Pan would say. May the s’mores board channel the kid inside of us all that will never grow up!
