Get ready to up your campfire snack game.
We’ve partnered with Stuffed Puffs® Filled Marshmallows to bring you 10 delicious ways to enjoy marshmallows by the campfire this summer.
Whether you’re planning your next camping trip or looking for something to snack on by your backyard fire pit, these campfire dessert recipes will hit the spot.
1. Campfire Banana Boats
Campfire banana boats are delectable and oh-so-easy to customize.
To make this toasty treat, slice a still-peeled banana down the center, stuff it with your favorite toppings, wrap it up in aluminum foil, then warm it over your campfire.
You can stuff your banana boat with anything you like, but the best combos usually have something melty, something sweet, and something crunchy.
We love Stuffed Puffs® Filled Marshmallows for the “something melty,” since the real milk chocolate inside goes so well with other toppings.
Examples of toppings you can try alongside Stuffed Puffs® include berries, toasted nuts, graham crackers, coconut flakes, peanut butter, white chocolate chips, hazelnut spread, and caramel sauce.
2. Campfire Cones
This campfire dessert is sweet and gooey, without being messy.
What’s not to love? To make a campfire cone, just put your desired toppings in an ice cream waffle cone, wrap it up in foil, and toast until your toppings are warm and melty.
Marshmallows are a must-include topping, since they help meld everything together into one incredible treat.
Other prime topping ideas include candy, fresh fruit, brown sugar, butterscotch chips, nuts, cookies, and graham crackers.
3. S’mores Nachos
S’mores nachos are a hit with kids and kids at heart alike
. To make this campfire dessert, combine graham crackers, cut Stuffed Puffs® Filled Marshmallows, and any other desired toppings in a cast iron skillet or foil pan.
Cover in foil and cook over a campfire for 5 to 10 minutes, then dig in.
4. S’mores in a Bag
S’mores in a bag is a camping dessert you can enjoy on the go.
To make this treat, roast a Stuffed Puffs® Filled Marshmallow over the fire on a skewer, then mix it in with a single serving bag of cookies.
Fudge stripe cookies and teddy grahams are popular choices.
This sweet, gooey snack is best enjoyed right away with a spoon or a fork.
5. Campfire Brownies
If you have a dutch oven, the sky’s the limit when it comes to campfire cooking options because most dutch oven dessert recipes can be made using a campfire.
One of our favorite campfire treats to make in a dutch oven is campfire brownies.
To make campfire brownies, line a dutch oven with foil, spray with non-stick cooking spray, and pour in your favorite brownie mix.
Top with Stuffed Puffs® and graham cracker crumbs, cover, and cook for around 20 minutes.
Everyone who eats these warm, rich brownies is sure to be a happy camper!
6. Pineapple Upside Down S’mores
This recipe infuses s’mores with the tart, sweet flavors of pineapple upside down cake.
To make pineapple upside-down s’mores, you’ll need a bag of Stuffed Puffs® Filled Marshmallows, chunks of pineapple and banana, chocolate chip cookies, and a skewer.
Stick your marshmallows and fruit on a roasting stick, toast, then sandwich your roasted marshmallows and fruit between your cookies.
7. Campfire Hot Cocoa
Stuffed Puffs® Filled Marshmallows make whipping up a cup of hot cocoa easier–and tastier than ever. Just stir a marshmallow into warm milk and enjoy!
Polish off your creation with whipped cream and the toppings of your choosing.
8. Campfire S’mores Dip
Campfire s’mores dip is one of our favorite camping desserts.
It’s tasty, fun, and super simple to make.
Just place some Stuffed Puffs® Filled Marshmallows in a foil packet, melt over your campfire, and dig into your dip using cookies or graham crackers as your “chips.”
9. Marshmallow Baked Apples
Marshmallow baked apples are a sweet treat with a welcome touch of autumnal spice.
To make this campfire dessert, core your apples without cutting through them entirely.
Then, fill with chopped Stuffed Puffs® Filled Marshmallows, cinnamon sugar or brown sugar, chopped walnuts, dried cranberries, and a pinch of nutmeg.
Top with a pat of butter, wrap tightly in tin foil, then roast in your campfire for 20 to 45 minutes.
You’ll know your apples are perfectly cooked when they’re tender without being mushy.
