S’mores for a Winter Party

With winter blowing at our front door and the joys of the holiday season right at our doorstep, it’s time to eat cozy snacks around the fire. Discover some of Firetainent’s favorite s’mores recipes as we sit around the fire pit table, creating new delicious party treats everyone can enjoy.

A S’mores party is most fun when you have a creative array of options to cobble together over-the-top treats.

One of the best ways to do this is to use filled chocolates. Use individually wrapped Ghirardelli squares, which are just the right size for a S’more. They also are thin and more delicate than, say, a Hershey bar, and they come in a lot of fun flavors.

Try bacon on a S’more with Ghirardelli’s salted caramel chocolate. One of our favorites is the Cinnamon Caramel S’more, with dulce de leche smeared over the cracker.

But, our favorite S’mores recipe is the savory option. We put out Carr’s whole wheat crackers, which are hearty and thick and a little sweet, with mozzarella balls, goat cheese, prosciutto, arugula, and herbs.

For the more traditional S’mores, we used the classic technique: roast your marshmallows, then quickly sandwich the whole thing together, letting the hot marshmallow soften the chocolate.

But for the savory S’mores, which of course had no marshmallow involved, it worked better to cook the entire sandwich in a cage-style S’mores maker. This way the cheese melted and the cracker got toasted.

Here are some of the most popular combinations!
