Fireworks and hot dogs and s’mores…..oh my! One of my kids’ favorite things is the s’mores over the fire on the fourth of July. Here is a simple and less expensive way to make them. Especially good for a crowd.

Just purchase some packaged fudge-striped cookies at the store. Toast your marshmallow as usual. (Or burn it like my son Spencer prefers!!!) Then place it between two cookies. Voila! A tasty and cost-effective s’more!!! The shortbread cookie covered with chocolate is perfect and there is less mess and no fighting over the last square of Hersheys!

Also….for you coconut lovers: try toasted coconut marshmallows in place of the regular ones. Delicious!!!!

Happy fourth everyone!
