S’mores were the very first thing I ever “cooked” as a kid. I can still remember the fun of jabbing them onto a stick and setting them on fire, then sliding the gooey marshmallows onto a graham cracker-chocolate sandwich. The warm marshmallows melted the chocolate and it was a race to eat it fast or wear it.

I may have grown up, but I still love making this tasty treat, especially with my kids. Here are 5 of the best s'mores recipes for you to make – no campfires necessary! 

Max Brenner’s  S’mores

Max Brenner, owner of the international fun chocolate restaurant chain, told us that, “The best way to eat S'mores is to bite into the s'more and let the chocolate drip down your face. The messier the tastier!" His yummy version is sort of a do-it-yourself fondue.
