Salted Caramel

Either drizzle salted caramel sauce over your s'more or add salted caramel candy onto the marshmallow when it's done roasting for a chewy, delicious treat.

Peanut Butter & Chocolate

Swapping chocolate with chocolate and peanut butter candy adds a boost of flavor. Add a smear of either smooth or crunchy peanut butter to your graham cracker.

Mini Waffles

Swapping graham crackers out for mini waffles adds extra tenderness to s'mores. Upgrade them and add other mix-ins to the batter, such as chocolate chips and fruit.

Homemade Marshmallows

Marshmallows made from scratch are lighter and more airy than mass-produced marshmallows. You can add flavorings, such as orange or mint, to customize them.

Bacon

S'mores get a salty, savory upgrade with the addition of bacon, which adds extra crunch. Be sure to cut the pieces so that they fit between the graham crackers.
