S'mores are the standard for camping trips, but these fruit s'mores bring the tropics and are anything but standard.

Tropical S'Mores

8 regular-sized marshmallows
8 (3-inch) soft molasses cookies
1 large mango, peeled pitted and sliced
Caramel sauce, purchased or homemade, see recipe (optional)
Coconut, toasted* (optional)
Dry roasted macadamia nuts, chopped (optional)

1. Toast marshmallows on long metal skewers over hot coals until golden brown on the outside and soft on the inside.
2. Place marshmallows on four cookies (2 marshmallows per cookie) and top with mango slices.
3. Drizzle with caramel sauce and sprinkle with coconut and nuts, as desired.
4. Top with remaining cookies.

Makes 4 servings.

*To Toast Coconut: Spread out on a baking sheet. Bake in a 350°F (175°C) oven, for 5 to 7 minutes or until golden. Stir often to ensure even browning and watch closely to prevent burning.
