Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350°F (180°C). Place graham crackers into a large resealable plastic bag. Finely crush into crumbs. Combine graham cracker crumbs, powdered sugar and butter in a small bowl. Using a spoon, place scant scoop of crumb mixture in each cup of a mini muffin pan. Press crumbs to form shallow cups with a mini tart shaper. Bake 4-5 minutes or until edges are bubbling. Meanwhile, break two of the candy bars into rectangles. Remove pan from oven; place one rectangle into each cup. Cut marshmallows in half crosswise using scissors dipped in cold water. Place one marshmallow half, cut-side down, into each cup. Return to oven 1-2 minutes or until marshmallows are just slightly softened. Remove from oven to a cooling rack; cool 15 minutes. Carefully remove cups from pan. Cool completely. Break remaining candy bars and place in a 1-cup bowl. Microwave on HIGH 1-1.5 minutes or until melted and smooth, stirring every 20 seconds. Dip the top of each marshmallow in melted chocolate. Turn top-side up and let stand 40-60 minutes or until set.

Steps:
- Directions makes 12 mini cups Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Grind graham crackers in a mini-food processor until a fine powder forms. Add in powdered sugar and melted butter until mixture turns into a crust (it shouldn't be greasy, if it's too greasy, add some powdered sugar to the mixture. But not too much.) Spray mini-muffin tin with cooking spray. Press about 1 tablespoon of the graham cracker crust into each mini-cup with the back side of the melon-baller (it helps form the cup shape. you can use your hands if you want - either way works). Bake 4 minutes, remove pan. Add about 3 dark chocolate chips to each cup, put back into oven for about a minute. Cut marshmallows in half crosswise and place one marshmallow (cut side down) into each cup, covering up the dark chocolate. Put back in the oven for 1-2 minutes, or until marshmallows begin to grow in size. Remove from oven, and cool on rack for about 15 minutes. Carefully remove cups from the pan, and continue to cool on rack. Break candy bars in a small, microwavable bowl, and melt (slowly, nuking for only about 10 seconds at a time, and stirring often). Dip each s'mores cup in the chocolate, or drizzle chocolate over s'mores cup with a spoon. Leave alone to set (in fridge is best - NOT in the freezer).

Tips:
- Choose the right marshmallows. Not all marshmallows are created equal. For the best s'mores, use large marshmallows that are soft and fluffy. Avoid using mini marshmallows, as they tend to get lost in the other ingredients.
- Toast your marshmallows to perfection. The perfect s'more has a marshmallow that is toasted on the outside and gooey on the inside. To achieve this, toast your marshmallows over a campfire or in a fire pit until they are charred and slightly melted.
- Use high-quality chocolate. The chocolate is another important ingredient in a s'more. Use a chocolate that you enjoy eating on its own. A semisweet or bittersweet chocolate is a good choice.
- Don't be afraid to experiment. There are many different ways to make s'mores. Try using different types of chocolate, marshmallows, and graham crackers. You can also add other ingredients, such as peanut butter, Nutella, or fruit.
Conclusion:
S'mores are a classic campfire treat that can be enjoyed by people of all ages. With a few simple ingredients, you can make delicious s'mores that will be the hit of your next party or gathering.
Here are a few additional tips for making the perfect s'more:
- If you are using a campfire, build a fire that is hot enough to toast the marshmallows but not so hot that it burns them.
- If you are using a fire pit, preheat it to a medium-high temperature.
- Toast the marshmallows until they are charred and slightly melted. Do not overcook them, or they will become tough and chewy.
- Place the toasted marshmallows between two graham crackers and top with a piece of chocolate. Enjoy!
