Now let's dive into creating a full-on campfire fondue S'mores experience. Setting up the station, prepping ingredients, and mastering marshmallow roasting is key. Unfortunately, without a specific video tutorial, here's a guide with text instructions to get you started:
Ingredients & Supplies 🛍️
- Chocolate: Semi-sweet chocolate chips or bars
- Marshmallows: Regular or large marshmallows
- Graham Crackers: Plain or flavored like honey or chocolate
- Dipping Utensils: Skewers or fondue forks
- Fondue Pot or Mini Dutch Oven: To keep the chocolate warm
- Fuel for Fire: Wood or charcoal for the campfire
- Optional: Carnation Evaporated Milk for a creamy fondue
Instructions 🤝
- Prepare the Fondue Station:
- Set Up the Campfire: Build a campfire using wood or charcoal, allowing it to die down to coals for even heat.
- Prepare the Chocolate Fondue: In a microwave-safe bowl, combine chocolate chips and a tablespoon of Carnation Evaporated Milk (optional for creamy texture). Heat in 30-second increments, stirring between each interval until smooth. Transfer the chocolate to your fondue pot or mini Dutch oven to keep warm.
- Roast Marshmallows:
- Pierce Marshmallows: Use skewers or fondue forks to hold 'em over the campfire.
- Roasting Tips: Hold the marshmallow about 10-12 inches above the flames. Rotate it slowly to ensure even cooking. For a golden-brown exterior and gooey interior, roast for about 30-60 seconds on each side. If you prefer a charred marshmallow, move it closer to the flames for a quicker roast.
- Assemble the S'mores Fondue:
- Prepare Graham Crackers: Place them on a nearby tray or plate.
- Dip and Enjoy: Once your marshmallow's roasted to perfection, dip it in the chocolate fondue, then sandwich it between two graham crackers.
