The fourth of July is fast approaching and with it comes parties, BBQs, cookouts, and of course all things red, white, and blue!  No good backyard cookout would be complete without S’mores, right?  Well,  Aldi’s recently sent me a great collection of items to help bring a little USA spirit to our cookout this summer!  Check out one of our favorite 4th of July desserts:

Patriotic S’mores

4th of July desserts

Ingredients for each S’more you want to make: 

2 halves of a graham cracker

2 marshmallows (each cut in half)

enough chocolate to cover a graham cracker half

patriotic colored sprinkles

Directions:  On a plate place the 2 graham cracker halves.  Top one with chocolate and the other with the halved marshmallows. (4 halves each) Microwave for 15 to 20 seconds until chocolate is soft and marshmallows are gooey.  Place the 2 halves together, forcing a bit of marshmallow out the edges.  Place sprinkles on a plate and dip the edges of the S’more in the sprinkle until it  is covered all the way around.

Serve and enjoy!

The great thing about these S’mores is that there is no fire required!  What are your favorite 4th of July desserts?  S’mores?  Red, white and blue Popsicle?  Maybe a cake decorated like the flag of the United States?  If you are looking for other creative 4th of July desserts come check out my 4th of July desserts board on Pinterest!
