- graham crackers (4" x 2" - 10cm x 5cm)4 unit
- (55g) chocolate bar2 oz
Method
1
Build a campfire for toasting the marshmallows.
2
A long thin stick from the woods is hard to find (a thin, long wooden dowel may be a good substitute but will catch fire easily). The stick, which is usually taken from the ground as part of a dead tree branch, does not have to be sterilized, but simply clear of any dirt. Alternately, you may purchase a metal roaster stick. Don't use a coat hanger or chrome or galvanized metal (like fence wire). Use stainless steel.
3
Before roasting the marshmallows, one must prepare the pieces of graham cracker, and a layer of chocolate. Break the crackers in half, so you have 2 2"x2" (5cm x 5cm) squares for each s'more. Break the chocolate bar into 1/2 oz (15g) pieces.
4
Push a marshmallow on to the end of the stick. Using the stick to place the marshmallow directly above the flame or source of heat, toast the marshmallow until it is golden brown around the outside. Some prefer their marshmallow burned. Others like to burn the marshmallow and peel off the burned outer skin to get to the gooey center.
5
Place the toasted marshmallow in between two pieces of graham cracker, with a layer of chocolate bar in between. The marshmallow should be hot enough to melt the chocolate. In a family setting, sometimes it is helpful for children to roast the marshmallows, and adults to supervise and assemble the s'more while preventing the child from touching the hot end of the stick. Enjoy!

Place the chocolate on one of the pieces of graham cracker, and then place a marshmallow on top.
8
Put it in the microwave for 15-25 seconds (depending on the microwave).
9
After it has been microwaved, the marshmallow should be much bigger, fluffier, and molten, and the chocolate should be semi-melted. Place the other half of the graham cracker on top of the marshmallow and squish it down. Enjoy!
