Peanut Butter and Nutella S'MORES



Here is a really fun gift to put together or to be enjoyed by your own family! Everybody LOVES S'MORES, but unless the Hershey's bars are kept cool...you can have a real mess on your hands.
Have you EVER tried unwrapping melted chocolate with children who have had to be patient all day long for their Fire Pit Treats before bed? I have and let me tell ya...it is NOT what sweet dreams are made of! It's Not really that bad, but here is a great alternative. Take the the top graham cracker and spread peanut butter on it. Then, spread Nutella on the other half. Roast your marshmallow and sandwich the marshmallow between the two. Okay. It is a bit more time consuming and a bit messier, but your children and adults are going to be raving about your S'MORES forever!

No Fire Pit? Backyard Burn Ban? {lucky for our family my hubby, the firefighter, is Mr. Safety Monitor!} NO PROBLEM!

S'MORES on the SILPAT:

Preheat oven to 400. Place Graham Crackers on SILPAT-lined perforated baking sheet. Put marshmallows on top of each Graham Cracker and bake for about 4 minutes or until golden brown. Remove from oven and top with a Graham Cracker that has been spread with NUTELLA.

Your Shopping List:

Any Box or container for packaging
1 brown paper lunch sack for lining the bottom of your container...can be wadded up to help start fire!
1 package CAMPFIRE GIANT ROASTERS MARSHMALLOWS {FAT FREE AND GLUTEN FREE} unless you have nothing else to do and you make your own marshmallows!
1 package TRADER JOE'S Old Fashioned Cinnamon Grahams {Use the original Graham Crackers and regular-sized marshmallows for making your S'MORES in the oven...Trader Joe's brand tends to get a bit soggy.}
kindling wood {this is the perfect thing to have your boys put together...it will take them hours and hours}

  2. I've made s'mores with oreos, peanut butter cups, and various forms of chocolate, but never with nutella or peanut butter. It sounds like a new hit.
