International S’mores are a twist on an American classic. I think everyone will find one combination they’ll love!

After making homemade marshmallows, it’s only natural to make S’mores, right? But you know me and my chocolate problem. When I started thinking about European chocolate, I got an idea, and another idea, and another. Well, just look at what I’ve done.

SCOTTISH S’MORES

Shortbread, Cadbury’s Dairy Milk Chocolate  and a marshmallow

FRENCH S’MORES

ITALIAN S’MORES

BELGIAN S’MORES

Speculoos biscuits with Belgian dark chocolate and toasted marshmallow (I was kind of hungry when I was shooting these…can you tell?)

And last, but not least, my favorite ~

BRITISH DIGESTIVE S’MORES

Digestive Biscuits with Cadbury’s Dairy Milk Chocolate and a toasted marshmallow! Heaven to a Brit!

I wanted to make Australian S’mores with Anzac Biscuits and Mexican S’mores with Mexican Cookies, too. However, there are only so many S’mores a girl can eat in one go!

Let me know if you come up with another international s’mores version. I’d love to hear what you come up with. In the meantime, I hope you try one of these treats as they are all deliciously naughty, and very messy! Enjoy!

    What a fun idea! When I was a counselor in music camp. we used to add fresh raspberries to our s’mores as a new twist. I think that would be great when using shortbread cookies!

    What a great and fun idea, I love the international s’mores. I am such a big fan of the British digestives I think that would be my favorite. They all looks so good though,

    Hi Christina,

    A truly international dessert. They all look so yummy, I can’t choose just one. I love s’mores. I also love the different biscuits that you are combining the different chocolates. And your homemade marshmallows just add to the sweetness of this little dessert. Great job, Christina and a nice way to enjoy an old standard. Have a great Thursday…

    Dottie :)
