Mickey’s Cinnamon Roll S’mores Bake

Mickey’s Cinnamon Roll S’mores Bake

By Erin

It’s National S’mores Day! To celebrate I made a magically delicious S’mores Bake that you can easily make at home to enjoy too! Did you know that S’more is a contraction of the phrase “some more”? S’mores appeared in a cookbook in the early 1920s, where it was called a “Graham Cracker Sandwich”. It was a treat that was already popular with both Boy Scouts and Girl Scouts. We honor the most commonly packed camping snack by celebrating National S’mores Day on August 10th. Summertime is finally here and with it comes camping and gathering around the campfire in the great outdoors. S’mores have us salivating in anticipation of smashing those tasty toasted marshmallows with a slab of chocolate between two graham crackers. Try this fun and magical twist on an old favorite tonight! Now, who’s ready for some S’mores??!!

It’s the unofficial start of the summer – a long, sunny, warm weekend devoted to family togetherness, outdoor events, and community.  We spend the time to honor all of our men and women in the military who have fought for our freedom and paid the ultimate price—and to those currently serving our country I also want to thank you for your service 🇺🇸

I have spent a LOT of time outdoors this weekend out in the sun, and my skin sure could use a little TLC.  Make this easy sugar scrub at home all summer long to keep your skin glowing with just a few supplies, and package into a small mason jar or decorative jar. Finish it off with a colorful ribbon for a perfectly giftable presentation.

This homemade exfoliating scrub is a wonderful way to pamper your skin, leaving it softer and smoother. Use this sugar scrub on rough areas on your skin every few days for the best results.
