Living in Seattle, that is kind of crazy because it&#8217;s only sunny and warm from July through to September.   But we love it.   I do admit that we often have to cover our campsite with large tarps and we have a catalytic heater for those rainy, cold camping trips.   My kids love sitting around the campfire, making S&#8217;Mores &#8211; so I decided to bring the feeling of camping home with this S&#8217;Mores Frosting.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.cookiesorbiscuits.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/10\/Smores-Frosting.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"453\" height=\"680\" class=\"alignnone size-large wp-image-1874\" alt=\"Smores Frosting\" src=\"http:\/\/www.cookiesorbiscuits.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/10\/Smores-Frosting-453x680.jpg\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.cookiesorbiscuits.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/10\/Smores-Frosting-453x680.jpg 453w, https:\/\/www.cookiesorbiscuits.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/10\/Smores-Frosting-200x300.jpg 200w, https:\/\/www.cookiesorbiscuits.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/10\/Smores-Frosting-600x900.jpg 600w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 453px) 100vw, 453px\" \/><\/a> <\/p>\n<p>I had never heard of S&#8217;Mores until we moved to America and only tried my first one in 2007.   In Australia, we roast our marshmallows, but we just don&#8217;t take it to the next level of sticking the marshmallow between two cookies and a piece of chocolate!   Australia &#8211; you are truly missing out on this one!  <\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.cookiesorbiscuits.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/10\/Chococlate-Cupcakes-with-Smores-Frosting.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"453\" height=\"680\" class=\"alignnone size-large wp-image-1875\" alt=\"Chococlate Cupcakes with Smores Frosting\" src=\"http:\/\/www.cookiesorbiscuits.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/10\/Chococlate-Cupcakes-with-Smores-Frosting-453x680.jpg\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.cookiesorbiscuits.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/10\/Chococlate-Cupcakes-with-Smores-Frosting-453x680.jpg 453w, https:\/\/www.cookiesorbiscuits.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/10\/Chococlate-Cupcakes-with-Smores-Frosting-200x300.jpg 200w, https:\/\/www.cookiesorbiscuits.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/10\/Chococlate-Cupcakes-with-Smores-Frosting-600x900.jpg 600w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 453px) 100vw, 453px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>This frosting is a twist on this American classic.   Toasting the marshmallows under the broiler (or the griller as I would have said in Australia) gives the frosting that roasted marshmallow flavor.   Throw in some chocolate chips and crushed up graham crackers and you have a S&#8217;Mores flavored frosting.   <\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.cookiesorbiscuits.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/10\/Smores-Frosting-and-Chocolate-Cupcakes.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"453\" height=\"680\" class=\"alignnone size-large wp-image-1876\" alt=\"Smores Frosting and Chocolate Cupcakes\" src=\"http:\/\/www.cookiesorbiscuits.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/10\/Smores-Frosting-and-Chocolate-Cupcakes-453x680.jpg\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.cookiesorbiscuits.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/10\/Smores-Frosting-and-Chocolate-Cupcakes-453x680.jpg 453w, https:\/\/www.cookiesorbiscuits.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/10\/Smores-Frosting-and-Chocolate-Cupcakes-200x300.jpg 200w, https:\/\/www.cookiesorbiscuits.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/10\/Smores-Frosting-and-Chocolate-Cupcakes-600x900.jpg 600w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 453px) 100vw, 453px\" \/><\/a> <\/p>\n<p>Just a little S&#8217;Mores history for those out there like me, who knew nothing about this delicious little campfire treat.
