S’more season is practically here!
Ok, I feel like the Grinch saying “it’s practically here”, but really S’more season WILL officially be here this weekend (hello Memorial Day!!). Yes, I have probably seen the Grinch one too many times for sure, (but I still love it) but I couldn’t resist because Memorial Day is practically here.
Anyway, I am pretty excited about some cool ideas I have for new twists on the classic S’morse, but today I am actually sharing an idea from my brother Brendan who is living in Salt Lake City and spending the spring and early summer working at a pizza shop…
Not sure why he’s working at a pizza shop making pies, but apparently he’s pretty good at it and he gave me the idea for this S’more creation, so cool!
Originally, I had another post planned (for like months) that I really wanted to show you guys before Memorial Day, but well, unfortunately I relied on an unreliable source and they didn’t come through until the day before for I was leaving for Cali 🙁 I am still pretty excited to share that post, but it’s going to have chill a bit until later in the summer. Luckily, my brother had a great idea for a last-minute fill in, so here we are today with his twist on the classic, campfire grilled S’more calzones.
This version is so fun too (leave it to Brendan to somehow make the already fun S’more just that much more cool!) and even more delicious. So I guess everything turned out pretty great anyway.
These S’mores are also super simple, but the best thing about them is that you can make them in advance and just bring them along to whatever fun spot you may be headed off for. Then just throw them on the already hot grill (in a pan over a campfire works too) and you’ve got an awesome, no effort required, dessert! Just like the classic, but a little better because umm grilled, cinnamon spiked pizza dough…plus one or maybe two, too many, pieces of Hershey’s chocolate squares equals delicious fun!
But we all know you can never have too much chocolate. Maybe too many mallows (cause honestly, I can’t handle more than one marshmallow), but never too much chocolate…clearly.
Oh, and if you’re into it, these can also get a little dusting of powdered sugar and a sprinkle of crushed graham crackers.
BUT, maybe the best part, which yes is optional, is that scoop of ice cream you should most definitely be eating with these. It’s almost like a handheld pie, with a scoop of vanilla ice cream. Warm chocolate filled marshmallow pies with cold vanilla ice cream.
SO GOOD.
I really couldn’t think of a better way to celebrate Memorial Day than these cute little calzones. They are something everyone can love and will have fun eating too! They’re even a little less messy than traditional S’mores.
Perfect, right?!?
And don’t worry if you can’t wait until Monday and are in dire need a little Tuesday treat… these are perfect for that too!

But really, that filling. Two thumbs up!
Woah, that’s awesome 🙂 Would definitely serve with ice cream!
These look amazing! Definitely saving this recipe for later!
These are beyond adorable! Love this idea!
hello stretch pants!
Taking it to the next level: Marshmallows on fire in the background! These calzones look amazing!
DELISH! Smores are life!
This reminds me of the best peanut butter and jelly sandwich I’ve ever tasted… the bread was grilled and had a bit of a charred flavor, which just gave the whole thing so much depth. These dessert calzones are so lovely and have me ready for summer!
These sound sooo good Tieghan! What a perfect little treat for all those summer parties! And being able to make them ahead….perfect!
Pretty much dying over here. I like to think of smores season as year around because I can never get enough. And calzones are my next victim to my obsession!
This is ridiculously amazing. I’m freaking out right now.
S’mores CALZONES?! Whaaaaat? Girl, this is beyond awesome!
Seriously Tieghan I don’t know how you do it! I get to your site and I can’t decide which image to pin cause they’re ALL serious foodporn! Hats off to you my dear!! 🙂
This just took camp fires to a whooole new level…
Omg, this is such a fantastic idea! I’m stoked to try these out one day! Pinned!
I had to google S’mores a few years ago when I saw them in my Hummingbird Bakery cookery book and boy I’m glad I did. S’mores are one of America’s greatest exports, but I still need to be convinced to try pop tarts!…
Much love from the UK, Beanie x
