First off - this is one of my favorite camping shortcuts - I still thank whoever taught it to me years ago. Well, I would, that is - if I could just remember who it was. If it was you - Thank you!
Fudge stripe cookies make smore making easy peasy. but our Markie is our first to actually utilize it to it's full extent.
So - as per Markies instructions.....
1. Have mom or older sibling cook marshmallow to brown toasty perfection
2. Layer marshmallow between two fudge stripe cookies
3. Insert finger into hole. mmmmm. Even better if the hands and fingers are camping grubby

4. Hand posture is everything
5. Nibble way around the cookie/smore
6. Keep wary eye on potential smore thieves portraying themselves as loving mothers and grandma's

This little guy, who had been sleeping better - had another rough few nights. Last night was horrid - we were up all night long. I just woke up - having hired Allan to watch the crew while I went back to bed. It wasn't quite enough but it will have to do - there's stuff'es to be done - after all.

He's too cute, and love the shortcut! I'll have to try that, now I want a smores!

He is not nearly dirty enough! I don't see any marshmallow on his face at all :)

Whoa. Where'd the baby go, and how'd this older kid get put in his place? Looks like a shorter version of Allan.

Wow, that *is* a good idea with the cookies! Though... I always end up eating the marshmallows by themselves. That way, I can eat a good four or five of them. LOL.
Adorable photos! :D

Never tried it with the striped cookies! Will have to give it a try. We have used Reeses many times in place of the Hersheys. One day when we had no Reeses, Rog just "peanut buttered" his graham cracker first, and used Hersheys. It was a hit, and cheaper than buying the Reeses. It's a standard around here now....

What a great idea..I'm SO getting to the dollar store and trying that out tonight!
