Brownies Pot Brownies Brownies made on the stove instead of the oven. With a normal box of brownie mix make the batter as instructed on the box. Instead of putting the prepared batter into a pan pour batter into a cooking pot. Stir the batter in the pot over medium heat until warmed through.
(HINT: The longer the batter is kept on the heat the more chunks of cooked brownie there will be.)

Campfire S'mores Campfire S'mores The classic campfire treat. Build a campfire (outside). Once the fire is going strong put a marshmallow on a metal skewer or a hanger will work (be sure to burn off any paint before putting on the marshmallow). Hold the marshmallow over the fire until it is toasted to your liking. Take two halves of a graham cracker and put a piece of chocolate on one of the graham crackers. Place the marshmallow on one side of the graham cracker (the one with the chocolate) and use the other half to slide it off the skewer. Enjoy!
Microwaved S'mores Microwave S'mores A twist on a classic campfire treat. Take a graham cracker and split it in half. Next place a marshmallow and piece of chocolate on a one half of the graham cracker. Place into the microwave and heat for about 20 seconds.
