S'mores and More S'mores. Love Them 19 Different Ways!

S'mores are as classically American as apple pie, but they don't have to be made the same way you made them as a Girl Scout.  Try mixing things up with these s'mores hacks that are sure to have everyone asking for "some more"! Do you remember the first time you had a s'more?  Chances are that it was around a campfire, perhaps on a family camping trip or scout outing.  This treat, which is most popular in the US and Canada, first appeared as "Some Mores" in the 1927 Girl Scout handbook, Tramping and Trailing with the Girl Scouts.  The name 's'more', a contraction of sorts of the original name, is said to have first been coined in 1974.  Some folks believe that it started when campers were eating a 'some more' and wanted to quickly ask for another.   Their mouths were so full, they were not able to fully pronounce the two words, thus combining them together.  Makes sense to us! Although National S'mores Day is August 10 and s'mores are typically a summertime treat, their popularity has grown to the point where s'mores are in demand any time of year!  We attribute that to the fact that so many folks now have backyard firepits.  In fact, you really don't need a fire to get that lovely marshmallow char.  You can get a similar effect with the grill, the broiler, a kitchen torch, gas stove or even over a candle or Sterno. These days, chefs and at-home cooks around the world are taking notice of the wonderful flavor combination of graham crackers, chocolate and marshmallow.  They are blessing us with all sorts of inventive new ways to enjoy our s'mores...pretty much any time of day or occasion!  We've compiled some of our favorites for you to try at home.

Enjoy these 19 decadent and delicious s'mores hacks.  Make them all and just try to choose a favorite!
