They’re a favorite pastime at summer camp, but stick-to-your-fingers s’mores have a way of taking the chill off in winter. It probably has something to do with the warm, gooey center, which now sits front and not-so-in-the-center over an easy-to-eat graham cracker dough. It’s there on top that you’ll find a view of melted chocolate and perfectly charred marshmallow (aka the other white fluff) to help you reminisce of warm, sunny days.
