These Messy Campfire Snacks Combine Dessert and Breakfast
Ady Floyd — June 10, 2015 — Art & Design
These homemade miniature waffle s'more bites are the perfect messy campfire snacks to enjoy in the comfort of your own home. The simple recipe combines the taste of the one and only traditional bonfire dessert of s'mores with the popular breakfast meal, waffles.
All you need is a mini waffle, chocolate chips, a chocolate bar and the edible glue that holds everything together -- marshmallows. Start with toasting the waffles while melting a bowl of chocolate in the microwave. Dip half of the waffles in the melting chocolate and pop a tray of marshmallows in the oven for about 60 seconds. When ready, put the chocolate covered waffle on a plate, top it with a marshmallow, add a brick of the chocolate bar and finish it off with another plain waffle on top.
These messy campfire snacks are a great way to spend time with the kids or just to get the kids in the kitchen.
