Sweet Graham Cracker Substitutes for S’mores

• French bread (my favorite, think of a low budget version of a chocolate croissant with roasted marshmallow. You can toast the bread or not. Butter optional. We made these last weekend. Husband thought I was nuts until he ate one.)
• Cookies

For cookies to use for s’mores I recommend:

1. Chocolate chip
2. Oreos
3. Nutter Butters
4. Homemade Gingersnaps
5. Anna’s Ginger thins
6. Vintage Sugar Cookies
7. Thin Mints 

• More Sweet Substitutes for Graham Crackers

• Broken ice cream cones (waffle or sugar cones would work best)
• Tortillas (flour or corn would work) Maybe deep fry them first???
• Strawberry slices (use a large or jumbo-sized strawberry and slice it vertically. This might be messier than most versions.)
• Pound cake slices (like with brownies, two slices of pound cake glued together with marshmallow and chocolate might be too big of a mouthful but you could always use one slice for a topless s’more.)
• Waffles (homemade or frozen, just toast first. I haven’t tried this yet but it sounds really good.)
• Quaker Chewy Granola Bars, Chocolate Chip 18-pack 
• Brownies (two slices of brownie melded together with marshmallow and chocolate might be too much of a mouthful. You could just use one brownie as a base)
• Donuts (you may need to slice in half horizontally.)

S’mores Origins

It seems that the history of s’mores is a bit murky but related to Girl Scouts and Boy Scouts. The first mention anyone has found of s’mores was in a girl scout book called Tramping and Trailing.
