If you are into the marshmallow and sweet potato combination, you will love the Smortato. Created by The Vulgar Chef, this concoction consists of smashing a s'more (which is made with a campfire-melted marshmallow, chocolate and graham crackers) into a baked sweet potato.
Epically awesome, this amped up marshmallow and sweet potato recipe will not only take your camping trip to the next level, it also adds a sweet take on a Thanksgiving classic. Described as "nothing fancy here just your average s'mores ingredients all stuffed up in a sweet potato," the Smortato appears to use chocolate syrup rather than chocolate squares. If you don't have access to a campfire, the marshmallow can also be melted in other ways.
