Easy Gooey Homemade Smores Cookies

Homemade Smores cookies are my latest easy family treat. OH MY, is there anything much that is yummier than melted chocolate and ooey gooey marshmallow? I can’t think of much else that is as melt in your mouth tasty as this little chocolate flavour punch.

Nothing evokes a camping state of mind faster than a mention of homemade campfire smores. But, let’s be honest it’s not always super simple to set up a campfire and start roasting those smores. So what’s a sweet tooth to do? Well, how about smores cookies?

Homemade Smores Cookies

What’s your favourite camping memory? We have a few here. Often they revolve around hanging out after dinner sitting by a campfire with family and telling stories or singing silly songs. That’s often when we would get the smores ingredients out and roast them too.

Whether you are hardcore campers or wannabes these homemade smores cookies are the perfect treat. I have one word of warning though. I have found these yummy little wafer cookies at Bulk Barn in the past, but they seem to be there only occasionally. If you spy them, pick some up fast to make these.

Indoor Smores Cookies for the Win

The the kids were small I used to do some fun activities with them in the winter, or even when we were all home sick. Occasionally we set up a small tent and camped out in the living room at home. Later on we built igloos in the backyard and played on the climber even in the winter months because kids need a lot of physical activity.

This is a treat that you could easily build into a fun camping day in your home in the middle of January. They are meant to be a simple small treat and not a meal of course. But, if you are having a quiet day at home and the kids are bored perhaps you can get them involved making these small campfire snacks.
