Welcome!

Welcome to Simple Fare, Fairly Simple. This is a place for me to post recipes of all kinds...along with other miscellaneous fodder from my so-called life here in the south. Who knows what you will find here. Could be anything from my husband...known as IT Guy...to my kids and beautiful grandbabies that are growing up way too fast right before my eyes. But...mostly this will be a place for food. I hope you'll see something you like and if you decide to try something from the list...leave me a comment and let me know!

I originally saw this on....where else? Pinterest!! The ones I saw were made with homemade marshmallows. Now I'm sure those would be divine...but I didn't have time to do that...nor did I want to. So store-bought marshmallows to the rescue! Now...I did not follow any particular recipe here...I just sort of flew by the seat of my yoga pants. If you want to crumble your own graham crackers, that would be marvy. But again...I went the easy route. Already crumbled crumbs for THIS gal! I think any kind of chocolate would work but I had semi-sweet on hand so I went with that. Here's my technique for these little guys.

S'mores on a Stick



1 package large marshmallows
2 cups graham cracker crumbs
1 1/2 cups chocolate chips - melted
A little bit of oil to thin the chocolate
Sucker sticks

Melt your chocolate chips in the microwave. Stir until smooth. Add a little bit of oil (maybe a tablespoon) to thin the chocolate for easier dipping. Stir well.

Pour your graham cracker crumbs into a bowl.

Dip one end of a sucker stick into the chocolate about 1/4 inch.

Plunge the dipped end into the marshmallow.

Then dip the marshmallow into the melted chocolate about half-way.

Place the dipped marshmallow into the cracker crumbs and roll it around to cover the chocolate.

Place on parchment paper to set up.

Eat!!

 
This is all you need.


 
Get your dipping station all set. 
Parchment paper: check. 
Graham cracker: check. 
Melted chocolate: check. 
Sucker sticks: check.


 
Dip the sucker stick into the chocolate 
a little ways then insert the dipped in into a marshmallow.


 
Dip it in some chocolate.


 
Then roll it around in the cracker crumbs.



 
Let the chocolate set up a little while then eat!
