S’more Cake

S’more Cake

One night my family was in the mood for S’mores, but we didn’t have time to make a fire in the fire pit, so instead we made a S’more cake.  The cake tasted delicious warm from the oven.  We microwaved leftovers for 30 seconds and topped with vanilla ice cream for a truly gooey and tasty dessert.

Recipe adapted from Pampered Chef

Ingredients:

3 milk chocolate candy bars 1.55 ounce broken into squares
