These incredibly delicious looking Pop-Tart s'mores substitute [s'more-flavored Pop-Tarts](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/poptarts-x-girl-scouts) for graham crackers. The rest of the ingredients remain the same: [marshmallow and chocolate](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/smore-speckled-marshmallow). This recipe in particular used [Hershey's](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/hersheys-smores-variety-kit) milk chocolate and microwaved the concoction for 30 seconds. One can also use the traditional over the campfire method or a s'more making machine. This recipe only calls for one pastry, which has been cut in half and toasted.

According to DudFoods, the originators of the Pop-Tart s'mores, they crumble much less than traditional graham crackers and have the added bonus of more chocolate, marshmallow goodness in every bite. These combination confections make a great snack whether you're camping or looking to experiment in your kitchen.
