frozen cupcake s'mores Archives - 2 Sisters 2 Cities

August 10 is officially National S’mores Day. I learned this little tidbit at the Walmart and Hershey’s sponsor suite at BlogHer ’12. While there is nothing better than classic s’mores- graham crackers, a large toasted marshmallow, and a Hershey’s milk chocolate bar, I wanted to share some of my other s’mores recipes that I have posted before.

If you wanted to go all out for National S’mores Day, you could make your own homemade graham crackers and marshmallows to go with it!

Some more fun facts about S’mores courtesy of Hershey’s:

S’mores have been around for 85 years
The first known recipe to be printed was in the 1927 Girl Scout handbook.
The word S’mores come from the combination of the the words “some” and “more.”

I tried another recipe today that I found via Pinterest- Frozen Cupcake S’mores. I changed up the original recipe I found a little bit and I would have to say it was a great cold treat on what is turning out to be a really hot day. Baby T was sobbing during the photo shoot because he wanted to try one of the frozen s’mores. I finally caved and gave him one in his outdoor highchair- I think I will be cleaning up the chocolate mess he made for the next few weeks!
