Marshmallow-Topped Pizzas

The Hershey's Toasted S'mores Cookie is a Pizza-Inspired Dessert

— May 24, 2016 — Lifestyle
While Pizza Hut recently made headlines for its beer-infused crust, now it is taking things in a different direction with the launch of its new Hershey's Toasted S'mores Cookie. For those who prefer sweet over savory, this hybrid dessert is the perfect summer dish.

The Hershey's Toasted S'mores Cookie is a sweet dessert pizza that puts a creative twist on the classic campfire treat. The base of the pizza consists of the Ultimate Hershey's Chocolate Chip Cookie, which is an existing dessert offered by Pizza Hut. However, the new s'mores version is topped with marshmallows, pieces of Hershey's Milk Chocolate Bar and graham cracker bits.

With chains such as Starbucks and Dairy Queen continuing to roll out s'mores-flavored snacks, it appears that the classic campfire treat remains a summer favorite among consumers
