Did you know that yesterday was National S'mores Day 2011? In honor of this campfire treat I am featuring a S'mores Dessert that my mom made. This isn't your traditional campfire S'mores, but an ice cream S'mores Dessert. A refreshing treat for this hot, humid summer that we're having in Minnesota.
To make this de-lish S'mores Dessert, start by layering graham crackers side by side in a 9x9" pan (4-6 whole crackers for the bottom and top). Next spread hot fudge topping over crackers (about 1 cup). Sprinkle with mini marshmallows. Spread 2 cups of softened ice cream on top. My mom used chocolate chip ice cream. Top with graham crackers.
Freeze dessert and enjoy!
Have you seen these marshmallows in the store yet?
Take a closer look. They are square shaped marshmallows, perfect for S'mores! I haven't had a chance to try roasting these marshmallows over a campfire, but they would be perfect to use in the S'mores ice cream dessert. I hope you have a chance to enjoy a S'more over the campfire this summer. Happy Camping!
