Celebrating S'mores

About the Celebrating S'mores Doodle
Let’s gather at the campfire to learn s’more about everyone’s favorite outdoorsy treat! Today’s handmade Doodle celebrates s’mores, the delectable nostalgic fireside snack. On this day in 1925, article called Patrol Leaders Have Outing came out mentioning some-mores' being introduced as a new dish at Camp Andree (national Girl Scout camp).
To make a s’more, grab a long, thin stick, poke a marshmallow onto one end, and roast it over a flame. When it’s as toasted as you like, break a graham cracker in half, add the chocolate, and squish the marshmallow in the middle to make a sandwich. Fun fact: the s’more first appeared in a 1920s cookbook and was called a “graham cracker sandwich.” The confection became popular among Girl Scouts, who dubbed the treat “some more,” which eventually became s’more.
While traditional s’mores are only three ingredients, some have gotten creative and built on the recipe with caramel, jam, peanut butter, or cookies. However you fire them up, enjoy a s’more to give summer a proper farewell!
