This delicious looking treat combines two classic confections in the form of a s'mores donut. If you are a police officer who loves camping, this drool-worthy dessert is one you will not want to miss. Concocted by Macaron Parlour in New York's East Village, the mouth-watering mini miracle is available for $3.

The s'mores donut is a regular round doughy treat with a [graham cracker topping](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/smores-cupcake-cups) and icing drizzle with [molten marshmallow](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/smore-speckled-marshmallow) and dark chocolate ganache on the inside. The gooey center combined with the graham cracker crumbs on top are all consistent with the campfire mainstay.

This sweet treat is a great way to enjoy a s'more without having to get out of the city. It's also a fun way to reminisce about the summer now that the holiday season is upon us.
