Don’t you just love receiving homemade holiday gifts? It’s even more fun to give a homemade gift, than it is to receive one. I’m pretty certain that my neighbors look forward to getting a tin filled of Christmas cookies each December. I have a fun diy gift idea for you that is sure to be enjoyed by family and friends. This Holiday S’mores Kit was is simple to assemble, and I think it turned out super cute!
This holiday s’mores kit is so simple to make and is something anyone could enjoy. You could even jot the recipe down on a card and accompany the directions with your s’mores kits.
HOLIDAY S’MORES
Ingredients:
Graham Crackers, broken in half (8 squares)
marshmallows
multi-colored sprinkles
small (fun-size) milk chocolate candy bars (1.55 oz.)
small dish of water
Directions:
Heat oven to 350°F. Place the graham squares in single layer on baking sheet. One at a time, dip marshmallows in water; gently shake off excess water and roll marshmallows in sprinkles. Place a marshmallow onto half of your graham squares. (You should have an equal number of marshmallow topped graham squares and plain graham squares.) Bake 2 to 3 min. or until marshmallows are puffed. Immediately place 1 chocolate piece on each plain graham square. Sandwich chocolate and marshmallow-topped squares to make s’mores; press together gently to secure. Enjoy!
Here’s what you’ll need to make the Holiday S’mores Kit:
square tin with lid
Graham Crackers
1 container of holiday sprinkles
small (fun-size) milk chocolate candy bars
marshmallows
holiday scrapbooking paper or a bit of gift wrap
a bit of bakers twine
scissors and tape
Cut the wrapping paper into rectangle pieces to wrap around the candy bars. Wrap and secure with a piece of tape. (Optionally, wrap the graham crackers in a piece of parchment paper.) Wrap the package of graham crackers in a bit of bakers twine. This is just to pretty it up, of course. Arrange the candy bars, graham crackers, marshmallows and sprinkles in the tin in a way that is pleasing to the eye.
I think this is such a fun gift to give to a family. It’s a something everyone can enjoy!

You know, it’s my ambition to put one of these kits together – I say that I will every year and I never get to it! I love the sprinkles in your kit!!
I absolutely love home made gifts… anything someone puts together reflects their craftiness and originality. I love this idea!
I love giving and receiving homemade gifts. They’re so much more thoughtful! This one looks so adorable, and delicious.
That’s such a great idea. Love the presentation in the box!
That is ADORABLE!!! It could even work for a cookie exchange!!
I can’t get enough s’mores! What a clever idea!
I love smores and we make them for our fall festival (and any other time I can make an excuse to make them). What a great gift idea.
This is such a great idea! Who doesn’t love S’mores?!
Now that is such an awesome gift idea – I have never had a smore so I would love this! x
What a cute idea! I wish someone would give me this kit by this weekend because we are going camping!
