Steps:
- Butter a 9- by 11-inch pan.
- Place the chocolate in a large bowl over a double boiler at a low simmer. Stir the chocolate until melted, and then turn off the heat. In a separate pot, bring the cream just to a simmer. Stir in the espresso and chile powder, and then remove from the heat. Add the cream mixture to the chocolate and whisk into a smooth, shiny consistency. Refrigerate.
- Melt the butter in a large pot over low heat. Stir in the marshmallows and cook until fully melted. Add the vanilla paste and popped popcorn, coating thoroughly.
- Press half of the popcorn mix into the prepared pan. Sprinkle with half of the salt and the chocolate mixture. Spread the remaining popcorn mix on top, sprinkling with the rest of the salt. Refrigerate until set.
- Once cool enough to easily handle, cut first into rectangles and then into triangles. Let sit at room temperature until slightly tacky.
- Crush 2 sheets of the graham crackers in a shallow dish. Place the triangles into the crumbs and press the crumbs into the bottom and sides. Place the triangles on a baking sheet and top with a few remaining marshmallows. Put under the broiler until light brown. Top with larger piece of graham for garnish.

Steps:
- Build a campfire.
- Put the chocolate in a medium heatproof bowl or pot and set near the fire so it melts but doesn't scorch, stirring occasionally if needed. Crush the graham crackers by massaging them in their sleeve, being careful not to puncture it. Once the crumbs are a fine as you can get them, open the sleeve along the lengthwise seam and place on a flat surface near the campfire.
- Skewer a strawberry through the hull so it is firmly on the stick and dip half of the strawberry in the marshmallow crème. Place over the fire and cook until the marshmallow is golden. Dip the uncovered half of the strawberry in the chocolate and roll the chocolate in the graham cracker crumbs. Repeat with the remaining strawberries, marshmallow crème, chocolate and graham cracker crumbs.
Tips for Making Perfect Smores:
- Use fresh, high-quality ingredients. The better the ingredients, the better the s'mores will be.
- Roast the marshmallows over a campfire or in a fire pit. This will give them a delicious smoky flavor.
- Don't over-roast the marshmallows. They should be melted and gooey, but not burnt.
- Use a graham cracker that is fresh and crispy. Stale graham crackers will make the s'mores less enjoyable.
- Add your favorite toppings. Some popular options include chocolate chips, peanut butter, and bacon.
Conclusion:
Smores are a classic campfire treat that is enjoyed by people of all ages. They are simple to make and can be customized to suit your own taste. With a few simple tips, you can make perfect smores that will be the hit of your next camping trip.
