How To Make S’mores Snack Mix From Scratch (FOOD PHOTO SHOOT)

[gringalicious]

Would you like S’more? I do, s’more snack mix!

Let me introduce you to the best snack mix ever that will not only be way healthier than store-bought, but taste way better.

Like 1000 times better. Sophie talked my mom into a one time only purchase of packaged marshmallows recently, which is something my mom never buys. Sophie ate a few and brought the rest home and I thought, since there was a whole bag left, I might just “borrow” the extras for an easier short-cut ingredient in a recipe I had been testing. I tasted one to decide if they would work and you wanna know what I discovered guys? I hate marshmallows. Wait, no, I don’t hate all marshmallows, I hate the ones that taste like nothingness and are just a bouncy bite of sugar in your mouth! What a waste of chewing muscles, you know what I mean? Needless to say, I’ll stick with my homemade ones, thank you very much.

I got into making marshmallows at home when we lived in Idaho and I’ve loved doing it ever since because there is so much versatility when you make them yourself. Did you know that chocolate marshmallows are totally a thing? Oh, and these marshmallows were bomb! Marshmallows are also so much easier than you’d think, especially once you’ve made them a few times and feel comfortable with the hot sugar.

Another thing that I really love to make at home, and something that I also started making in Idaho, are graham crackers. Of course, my homemade graham crackers are a little less like a cracker and more like a killer, melt-in-your-mouth, crunchy butter cookie…with graham flour! But, you know, there’s less guilt when you refer to them as crackers. When I don’t have graham flour I just sub fine whole wheat flour and it works just as well.

My brother and I agreed that it would be epic to eat this with milk in a bowl like a breakfast cereal. It would be like cookie crisp meet lucky charms! Talk about breakfast of champions. Also you guys, I can’t help admitting that I think this is the cutest thing ever, after you make this you have to try making mini smore’s at your next campfire or cozy indoor fire ’cause they’re 100% adorables! YESSSSS!!! Do it!!

As always, the recipe is available upon request. The first request gets an upvote.

Recipe please @gringalicious

[gringalicious]

Thanks for your interest @bien!

Ingredients

Marshmallows:
2 cups homemade marshmallows (1/4 of this recipe) cut into small, about 1/2 inch, cubes
Grahams:
1/2 cup (1 stick) butter
1 cup dark brown sugar
1/4 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
2 1/2 tablespoons milk
1 cup graham flour (whole wheat flour works)
1 1/4 cups all purpose flour
1 1/2 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips or bars chopped into small pieces

Instructions

1. Preheat oven to 325 degrees F (160 C). Beat butter and sugar together in a medium mixing bowl until creamed. Add soda, salt, vanilla, and milk and mix until combined. Add flours and mix until dough is completely mixed.
2. Turn out onto lightly floured surface and roll into a layer about 1/8 to 1/4 inch thick and cut into small squares, about 1 inch. Place them about 1/4 inch apart on a parchment or silicone lined baking tray and bake for 6 - 8 minutes until edges are browned and crisp. Cool completely.
3. Mix the mini grahams with your homemade marshmallows and chocolate pieces or chips in a large bowl and serve or store in an air-tight container and save as a fun on-the-go snack.

Notes
A quick note on storing: When all mixed together in an airtight container, the grahams like to absorb any moisture from the mallows which makes them soft and gives the mallows a slight crunch. We kind of like this but if you wish to avoid it, just store separately and mix soon prior to serving.
