S'mores

Last week, some of you had the chance to try s'mores, a North American camping dessert made with Graham crackers, marshmallows, and chocolate. S'mores (a contraction of "some more") have been popular since at least 1927, when the first known recipe was published in the Girl Guide manual. Here's a very technical diagram showing how a s'more is constructed:


Since some s'more ingredients, although readily available in North America, are rare in Germany, I have developed a German version using ingredients you can find at any German supermarket! They really are delicious and now you can try them for yourself! You will need:
- one package of Leibniz Butterkeks
- one package of mini Schaumküsse

Instructions:
1. Heat the oven to 200 degrees Celsius.
2. Place the Schaumkuss on a baking sheet in the oven. Keep an eye on it, because when the chocolate begins to melt, it will melt quickly!
3. When you see the chocolate melting, take the Schaumkuss out of the oven. Place it between two Butterkeks and squeeze until it flattens. It should look something like this:

4. Now eat it! Enjoy it! Brush your teeth afterwards because a s'more is pure sugar!
