August 10: National S’mores Day

May I have “some more”, please!

This treat was most likely developed by campers in the early 20^th century who found uses for the fairly new mass-produced marshmallow.

The first printed record of the S’mores recipe is found the 1927 Girl Scout handbook, Tramping and Trailing with the Girl Scouts”.

This treat has been a favorite of campers ever since!

Do you know which other treats feature the pairing of chocolate, marshmallow and cookies?  Read tomorrow’s blog to find out!
