Blue Ribbon Recipe by

I dreamt about this cake the other night. In my dream I was coming up with different ways to make cakes. Who doesn't like s'mores?

Blue Ribbon Recipe

This is a really fun cake that would be a fantastic summer cookout dessert. It's s'mores made into a cake. The vanilla cake pairs well with the marshmallow cream, chocolate frosting, and chocolate chips. Graham cracker crumbs dusted all over the cake make it pretty and add that essential s'more flavor. Decorating with just chocolate bars pretty, but you can get creative with toasted marshmallows too. This semi-homemade cake is easy to make but will wow your family and friends.
