S'mores 2.0

S'mores can be messy. Very messy. Trying to get a piece of a chocolate bar to melt enough to stay stuck to the graham cracker yet not be so melted that it drips chocolate everywhere is a fine art. Luckily, with a little forethought and preparation, you can make s'mores simple to assemble.

This instructable is a s'mores mod. You are going to pre-chocolatize the graham crackers so all that is required for ooey, gooey smores goodness is to melt that marshmallow. Marshmallows can be toasted over a barbeque or other heat source but can alternately be melted in the microwave. Keep a bag of these chocolated grahams around for a quick comfort food fix any time.

Getting It Together

You need:
One sleeve of graham crackers
1/2 cup chocolate chips
one spoon
one butter knife
one small bowl
one shallow pan or plate

Preparing the Graham Crackers

Snap the graham crackers in half on the score line. If the graham crackers refuse to break neatly, score them a little with the knife before splitting them.

Chocolate!

Pour chocolate chips into a bowl and microwave 40 seconds. Stir. If the chocolate has not completely melted, microwave again for 10 seconds and then stir, repeating until it is all melted.

Spread the Chocolate

Spread melted chocolate on HALF of the graham cracker squares. Lay squares onto the pan.

Cooling the Chocolate

Place the pan in the freezer or refrigerator and chill until the chocolate has solidified. This only takes a few minutes.

Storage

Stack the chocolatized grahams in pairs with the non-chocolatized graham cracker squares. Store in zip top bags. Store them in a cool place until you are ready for s'mores.

Now you can make s'mores any time!

When you are ready for a s'more, simply toast your marshmallow however you see fit and squish between a pair of graham cracker halves. Consume!
