Some Mores II
Some Mores II
You may be familiar with the more popular version of this name, "S'mores" which is a contraction of the phrase "some more". "Graham Cracker Sandwich" was the term used when the recipe was published by the Campfire Marshmallow Company in the 1920's, then appeared as "Some More" when published in a cookbook for the Girl Scouts in 1927, and the term "S'mores" was used in 1938 in a cookbook aimed for summer camps, and was popular in both the Girl Scouts and Boy Scouts. In 1957, the recipe for "S'mores" appears in a Betty Crocker cookbook. A s'more is basically a graham cracker topped with a toasted marshmallow and some chocolate bar. This recipe is just marshmallow cream sandwiched between graham crackers and dipped in melted almond bark, easy and simple. Since no toasted marshmallows are used, these could also be called "Moon Pies" which were created in 1917. Regardless of any name you wish to use, they are easy and tasty. Measurements are approximate, this is a make what you want guide.
Ingredients
- 1 pack graham crackers, (3 packs in a box, use 1 of those packs)
- 1 jar marshmallow cream, (7 oz / 198 g), you will use about 1/2 of that
- 750 grams almond bark, (aka chocolate coating, 1 1/2 lbs)
Instructions
- Setup a double boiler, place on low heat, and add the almond bark. Allow the bark to melt, and stir the coating once in a while as it melts.
- As the chocolate is melting, open the pack of crackers, following the lines on the crackers, break each cracker in half, then break each half in half, resulting in 4 rectangular crackers from each large cracker. Place crackers on a plate and place in the fridge to chill. Line a baking sheet with foil.
- When the bark is fully melted and smooth, remove the crackers from the fridge. Drop a cracker in the bark, turn it with a fork and coat all sides, lift the cracker out with the fork, scrape off the excess bark from the bottom of the fork and place the cookie back on the foil. Repeat until all crackers are coated. Place the sheet in the fridge to chill.
- Once the crackers are chilled, about 30 minutes to an hour, simply spread marshmallow cream on a cracker then top with another cracker, place on a serving tray. Repeat until all the crackers are used.
- Serve and enjoy. Refrigerate unused crackers.
Notes
Cost per serving would be based on location for these. Low cost per serving in the US, this would be costly in Thailand as 2 out of 3 items would have to be bought at high end western stores.
