Rasberry S'Mores

A fruity twist on a Camp Nauvoo favorite. I thought this was appropriate as we head into summer and camping and all. I stole it from Real Simple and it gets rave reviews:
  • 8 graham crackers
  • 32 large marshmallows, cut in half
  • 2 1.5-ounce chocolate bars (such as Hershey's)
  • 1 cup fresh raspberries
Adjust rack to middle position and heat broiler or toaster oven. Break the crackers in half to form squares and place on a baking sheet. Arrange 4 marshmallow halves on top of each square. Broil for 30 to 60 seconds or until the marshmallows are golden brown. Break each chocolate bar into 12 pieces. Arrange the chocolate and raspberries on top of half the crackers. Invert the remaining marshmallow-topped crackers onto the raspberry-and-chocolate-topped crackers, pressing gently to make sandwiches. Stack them, if desired.

Tip: For more deluxe s'mores, use high-quality chocolate, like Scharffen Berger or Valrhona.

Smores are an ever ever fundamental experience in camping. Thank you for sharing a unique twist on them. May I add, if you want to have these smores over a campfire outdoors, have one person cook the marshmallows and a second person ready to put the smores togegther when the marshmallow is ready. Teamwork makes it more fun and a bit easier.
