S’more might sound like it was named after a person or the city where the snack began. Many people might think the names means something special, but it really doesn’t! It’s actually the combination of the two words in the phrase “some more”, which is not strange considering how tasty they are.
The first S’more recipe can be found in a book full of recipes that was published in the book “Tramping and Trailing with the Girl Scouts” by the Campfire Marshmallows company in the early 1920s.
This interesting little piece of information reveals the fact that this treat had already been popular with both Boy Scouts and Girl Scouts for some time prior to this.
By 1968 the following recipe was provided: place a square of milk chocolate on a graham cracker, toast a marshmallow to golden perfection and place it gently on top of the chocolate, then place a second graham cracker on top of the toasted marshmallow and squeeze.
Once this has been eaten, there’s no doubt that everyone will want “s’more”.
