Tips for Making a Summer S’Mores Board

 

  1. Go Beyond the Graham Cracker – Chocolate chip cookies, or almost any flat cookie, work well!
  2. Combine Salty & Sweet – Add some peanut butter, or even bacon, for that classic salty/sweet combo.
  3. Add Fruit – Pile on some thinly sliced apple paired with caramel, or some strawberries (a take on chocolate covered strawberries!).
  4. Spice it Up – There are plenty of gourmet chocolates infused with cayenne and other peppers—and they’ll make for a more grown-up S’More.
  5. Provide Plenty of Options – The beauty of a board is that everyone (kids and grownups) get to choose what to create. So go big! Summer won’t last forever, right?!
