3 ingredients

6 steps

What you need

  • 4 large marshmallows

Method

Restated from the original video

  1. 1

    Lay out 4 graham squares and set a piece of chocolate on each. Keep the other 4 squares for the tops.

  2. 2

    Spear a marshmallow on the end of a long skewer or roasting stick.

  3. 3

    Hold it a hand's width above glowing campfire embers, not in the flames, and turn it slowly until swollen and golden all over, 1-2 min.

  4. 4

    Lay the hot marshmallow on a chocolate-topped square, press a second graham square on top and slide out the skewer.

  5. 5

    Wait 30 seconds so the heat softens the chocolate, then eat. Repeat with the rest.

  6. 6

    No fire: heat the oven to 180 °C (350 °F), bake the open squares topped with chocolate and marshmallow on a lined tray until the marshmallow swells, 4-6 min, then close them up.

About s'mores

A toasted marshmallow and a square of chocolate pressed between two graham crackers, eaten warm so the chocolate softens against the hot marshmallow.

What cooks argue about

The variable that changes the result most is how the marshmallow is toasted: held close to the flame for a fast, charred outside, or held farther away for a slower, even gold.
