Fresh sweet strawberries covered with melted chocolate and marshmallows between graham crackers. These chocolate covered strawberries s’mores are the ultimate summer treats.
This post is actually prescheduled while I’m vacationing in Napa. Super excited to see wine country for the first time. A little sad considering that I live like an hour away. I’ll be sure to share pictures when I get back. In the mean time, you can see updates by following me on Instagram. =)
How can summer be complete without s’mores?
Actually, is s’mores an American thing? I’ve always thought that peanut butter and jelly was a common thing, but after I posted my Peanut Butter and Jelly French Toast recipe, I realized that it’s not. Is it the same with s’mores?
Anyway, I can’t even begin to tell you how in love I am with this version of s’mores.
Each bite is bursting with the sweet juiciness of strawberries, the decadence of melted chocolate, and the sweetness of melted marshmallows, all sandwiched between two graham crackers.
The addition of sweet seasonal strawberries is a tasty twist to a childhood favorite. All you really have to do is find a way to melt the chocolate and marshmallows. Use whatever is most convenient for you.
Grill? Go ahead. Oven? Sure. Microwave? Why not. Campfire? Even better.
I personally used an oven.
Preheat the oven to 350F. Place the s’mores onto the baking sheet. I stacked chocolate on top of one graham cracker and placed thinly sliced strawberries on top. Then on the other graham cracker I placed the marshmallow. If you can balance everything on top of each other, bonus points! I definitely couldn’t. So I separated them and put them together as soon as they come out of the oven.
Isn’t it gorgeous? The strawberries sink into the chocolate!
I can sit here and overindulge in these.
Hope you like them!

Welcome to Fiesta Friday and thank you for bringing this American delicacy to the party :). Yes, I agree, I had never heard of smores till I moved to America. Your version with the strawberries sounds excellent, that way you get the little ones to eat their fruit. Napa Valley eh? How exciting! Love the wine country in N. California, cheers!
